Some Upcoming Spokane City Projects

- Work to rehabilitate Lincoln Street from 29th to 17th avenues starts on Monday, Mar. 29. The project includes installing curb extensions with storm gardens that will drain the treated water into Cannon Hill Park pond.

Lincoln Street will be closed to drivers. The detour will be 14th Ave. to Cedar St./High Dr. or Bernard St. onto 29th Ave. The $1.7 million project is being funded by the 10-Year Street Bond and Wastewater Department.

- A project to install fiber optic cable in conduits in the area of Ray and Freya streets to Sprague and Hartson avenues is set to begin, also on Monday. Drivers can expect lane closures in the area crews are working.

The $72,000 project is being funded by the City of Spokane.
