Puyallup drivers: This busy intersection is closing for construction
The intersection of Ninth Avenue Southwest and Fifth Street Southwest will be closed next week by the fairgrounds in Puyallup.
According to a Facebook post from the City of Puyallup, the intersection will close on June 2 while the city conducts “underground utility replacement work.” They estimate it will reopen on June 4.
“Detour signs will be posted, and traffic will be rerouted to either 14th St SW or S Meridian,” the post said. “Drivers will need to use caution when approaching the intersection both during and after the closure.”
The city will close the intersection again on June 16, this time for three weeks, the post said.
“We appreciate everyone’s patience while this work is being completed,” the post said.
The work is part of the Ninth Avenue Southwest Festival Street project, which residents can learn more about at cityofpuyallup.org/1673/9th-Ave-SW-Festival-Street.
