Traffic Shift and Increased Construction Activity Underway

Now through November 2023, traffic is shifted to the east side of Pyramid Highway between Queen Way and Los Altos Parkway. Crews are conducting earthwork on the west side of the highway in preparation for roadway widening.

During this time, travelers can expect the following:

  • Reduced width of lanes

  • Designated pedestrian/bicycle route located on the east side of highway *Walking/riding through the active construction area outside of this designated ped/bike route is prohibited*

  • Haul trucks entering the work area between Los Altos Parkway and Disc Drive and exiting the work area at Farr Lane

  • SB lane split north of Farr Lane: Use the outside lane for access to Farr Lane

  • Periodic single lane nightly closures on Pyramid Highway

  • Periodic overnight single lane closures on cross streets, such as Disc Drive and Los Altos Parkway

  • No access to BLM recreation area from Pyramid Highway

  • Reduced 45MPH speed limit through the entire work zone

Normal working hours are Mondays - Fridays, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.


To reduce impact to daytime commute traffic, all lanes will remain open during the day; however, NB Pyramid Highway traffic will begin merging from three to two lanes prior to Queen Way. While the majority of delays will be brief, drivers can anticipate travel delays of up to 30 minutes.


As construction activity increases, help us keep everyone safe.

Obey construction signs and speed limits, use the designated detours, and always be alert. Thank you for your patience!

 

A designated and protected ped/bike path has been created for commuters to safely travel through the work zone between Queen Way and Disc Drive. The path is located on the east side of the highway and is paved the entire length. It is prohibited - and dangerous - to walk/bike through active construction outside of this designated ped/bike route.
