Project Update

Heads up Lacey! Project Admin here with a quick construction update for you:

On Monday, March 16 during the hours of 7 am – 5 pm, 26th Ave SE will be closed while crews deliver the lid to the wet well. In order to place the lid, there will be a crane on site. This is an exciting step forward in this project.

Good News: 26th Loop SE and Golf Club Rd SE will remain open, so access around the area will still be available.

As expected, given this time of year, this work is weather dependent. If plans need to shift, I’ll be sure to keep you posted with an updated schedule.

Thank you for your patience and support as we keep things moving forward on this project. We appreciate the community cooperation.

Project Update

Hello Lacey! Project Admin here with quick and friendly update:

Tomorrow, January 22, Golf Club Rd SE will be closed between 7 am – 5 pm while a large crane is on site. The closure allows our contractor to safely set vaults and keep everyone safe and sound.

Good news!

Access to 24th Ave SE and 26th Ave SE will remain open so getting around that area will still be easy.

Thank you for your patience and support as we keep things moving forward on this project. We appreciate the community cooperation.

With love,

Project Update

UPDATE: This has been rescheduled for Tuesday, December 23.

Also, for those who are curious (like me!) here’s a quick explanation of what a wet well is:

A went well is basically a large underground holding tank for wastewater. It temporarily collects sewage and then, when it reaches a certain level, pumps turn on and move it along to the treatment plant. Think if it as a waiting room that helps manage sudden increases in flow so everything keeps moving smoothly and safely.

Today’s road and intersection closure has been moved to Monday, December 22.

Project Update
Hello Lacey! Project Admin here with another friendly project update:

I do want you to keep in mind that this is weather dependent. If there is a change, we will notify you.

On Friday, December 19, 2025, the intersection of Golf Club Road & 26th Ave SE will be closed from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Our contractor will be delivering a wet well.

What you might notice that day:

  • Road closure signs guiding you around the area
  • Several large trucks delivering the wet well in pieces
  • One very large crane doing the heavy lifting

We know closures can be inconvenient, and we truly appreciate your patience while we keep things moving (even when traffic can’t).

Thanks for bearing with us, and Happy Holidays from the City of Lacey!

Construction Update
Hello again Lacey! It’s been quite a while since we last had a project update. I am here to bring you this following news: Currently the intersection of 26th Ave SE & 26th Loop SE is closed. It is intended to be fully closed (all day and all night) starting now and this will go until 5:00 PM Friday, October 31st.

Again, on Monday, November 3rd – Tuesday, November 11 this intersection will be closed but only during the hours of 7:00 am – 5:00 pm.

I understand the road closures are never fun nor do we like to close things, but it is important to do so for the safety of our community when it comes to installing underground utilities. Once this portion of the project is completed, I promise you will see less road closures.

We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to improve our community. Thank you!
