"The project to rehabilitate Addison and Standard streets from Francis Avenue to Colton Place and Beacon Avenue from Dakota Street to Nevada Street also starts today."
Actually it started a week ago, I shop at Fred Meyers on Tuesdays and head north on Addison to the Fred Meyer parking lot and that driveway was blocked last week, and a huge pile of asphalt that was scraped off Addison is on the corner of the Fred Meyer parking lot.
Thanks for the update Charles. Actually, I was up there late last week too and noticed they had started. I just completely spaced it out when posting that.
