The east entrance to Washington Park at SW Lewis and Clark Circle will close for a sewer construction project starting Monday, April 30, 2012. The project will close the entrance to all traffic, 24 hours a day, through May 26, 2012.

The south portion of Lewis and Clark Circle will remain open during construction as a park exit. Traffic entering Washington Park will detour to the SW Tichner Drive park entrance off of W Burnside Street.

Construction will also slow traffic on Sherwood Boulevard in Washington Park. Flaggers will assist traffic through the construction area.

The park entrance closure is part of a project to repair sewers in the Washington Park area. There will be sewer construction at several locations around the park through this September.
