Heads Up Bismarck – Extra Caution At This Intersection
Now that a warning or a "caution" has been issued...
...all you have to do is pay extra attention and be nice to your fellow motorists. We already have our share in this city of road construction - so here is another stretch where you need to keep an eye out for one another, especially since this part of our community will literally "Be Dark"
Taking turns and focusing on being courteous
Beginning tomorrow - October 16 - according to Bismarck Media "Century Ave Dark Traffic Signals at 4th St, Washington St :
"On Wednesday, October 16, 2024, the traffic signal at Century Ave & 4th St will be turned off for roughly one week. The old poles and foundations will be removed, and wiring will be moved from the old poles to the new poles. When work is finished at Century Ave & 4th St, the contractor will move over to Century Ave & Washington St and perform similar work at that intersection. For both intersections, when the signals are dark, lanes will be reduced, and traffic will be controlled with an all-way stop"
This part of town has always been busy ...
...with Century High School up the street, there is a dog park right next to it ( Century Bark Park ) and not far from State Street - construction around the area can be pretty brutal. If you travel the 94 heading towards Mandan, you'll know about the "Take Turns" sign - drivers from two lanes merging into one. Calmer heads always prevail - especially during road construction season - Relax and you will get to where you are going eventually.
