The Washington State Department of Transportation- Eastern Region, has their list of construction

High-profile jobs in the Spokane metro area include a couple projects on the North Spokane Corridor.
The biggest job is the construction of two bridges over Freya Street at the roundabouts north of Francis. There will also be some sidewalk and street work in the Hillyard Neighborhood.

On Interstate 90 in downtown Spokane, there is bridge joint and concrete panel repair work planned.  
Smaller projects in the area include ADA ramp improvements at a few locations on Division Street, Browne Street, and Ruby Street.  There will be paving work on north Division between Francis and the “Y,” and on Trent from Mission to Sullivan.  Paving will also be underway on the Newport Highway in Mead from Deer Road to Colbert Road.
