Downriver Drive Closure

City of Spokane Urban Forestry staff are doing an emergency removal of a dead tree on Downriver Drive right now. That means Downriver is closed between Columbia and Aubrey L. White Parkway until about 1 p.m.

So take that into consideration when driving.

It would be nice that when you post a road closure, you link your post to a Google/Yahoo map so readers can easily see the precise area that you are discussing.

Good call @Spokane Al. I have done that intermitently in the past but will try to be consistent in the future. The issue that I run into is one of time, because besides blogging I somehow pick up all the 'other duties as assigned' around the office. I'll make an effort to provide some sort of map reference though.
