Lake Stevens residents should be prepared for possible traffic delays starting this week, particularly in the vicinity of Lundeen Parkway's two roundabouts at Callow Road and Lake Drive. As announced on the official social media channels of the City of Lake Stevens, necessary maintenance work will be undertaken to inspect and clean the stormwater system.
Weather permitting, the work is scheduled for the week of January 12, 2026, which could lead to temporary inconveniences for drivers passing through these areas. According to the City of Lake Stevens' Facebook post, while these are not road closures, "traffic control and flagging operations may cause temporary delays or limited access." Residents are advised to plan their routes accordingly or allow extra travel time.
It's important to note that the flagging operations, which are critical for ensuring the safety of both workers and commuters during the project, will only take place during daylight hours. Specifically, disruptions can be expected between 9:00 am and 3:00 pm each day, when the contractors will be on site actively managing traffic. The city's outreach indicates their awareness of the possible disruptions, thanking citizens in advance for their patience.
Commuters should remain alert for the signs and directions provided by the flaggers, ensuring that they navigate the areas with appropriate caution. The local government has emphasized the temporal nature of these operations, seeking the public's cooperation in minimizing any negative impact on the daily flow of transportation. It's clear that the city anticipates this to be a smooth process; affected drivers will be the ultimate judge of that as the week unfolds. For more detailed information, updates can be found on the City of Lake Stevens' official Facebook page.
