OAKVILLE – Daytime travelers who use US 12 will want to add extra travel time.

From 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday, June 22, and Tuesday, June 23, sections of the road will be reduced to one lane.

The lane reductions create work zones for Washington State Department of Transportation crews to repair asphalt in multiple locations.

Travelers can expect to encounter flaggers alternating traffic and stops of up to 15 minutes in both directions.

WSDOT needs help from travelers
During the work travelers are encouraged to:

• Add extra travel time to help prevent delays.

• Travel before or after scheduled work hours.

Whenever near work zones please:

• Slow down – drive the posted speeds, they're there for everyone’s safety.

• Be kind – workers are out there helping to keep everyone safe and improve the roadways.

• Pay attention – both to workers directing traffic and to fellow travelers.

• Stay calm – expect delays, leave early or take alternate routes if possible.
