West Meeker Street near the Riverbend Golf Complex<\/a> in Kent will face lane closures from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. weekdays from now through July 27 for utility work.<\/p>\nTraffic will be reduced to one lane east of the former par 3 golf course to the Meeker Street Bridge, according to city Public Works staff. A developer is constructing 500 apartments and retail space – known as Marquee on Meeker – at the site of the former course, south of Meeker Street. The 18-hole course remains open across the street.<\/p>\n
Traffic control will be in place. Drivers are advised to use alternate routes.<\/p>\n
Intermittent lane closures for construction are expected to continue until 2020.<\/p>\n
The city sold the course for $10.5 million to Auburn-based FNW Inc.\/Landmark Development Group. The city is using the proceeds to pay off Riverbend Golf Complex debt and to upgrade the 18-hole course, driving range and clubhouse.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
