The following information applies to the period of Oct. 11-17:

The Roop Street widening project is continuing and is expected to be completed by the end of 2010. The following impacts are expected this week:

• Roop Street is now open between William Street and Robinson Street. Be aware that Washington Street is now a one way street westbound from Roop Street to just east of Walsh Street and the Library entrance.

• William Street will have intermittent lane closures at Roop Street Monday-Friday, 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. for westbound traffic.

• Long Street will be closed from Stewart Street to Marian Street. Traffic will be detoured via Stewart Street, Corbett Street and Molly Drive.

• Lee Street and Beverly Street will be closed to through traffic at Roop Street. All Senior Center traffic should utilize Beverly Street from the east via Marian Avenue, Molly Drive and Corbett Street.

• Roop Street is closed from William Street to Stewart Street through the completion of the project.

As a result of the next phase of the NDOT project on the freeway, Koontz Lane will be closed between Raglan Circle and Edmonds Drive until January.

The Nevada Department of Transportation is working to add a third northbound lane on Highway 395 between Jacks Valley Road and Lupin Drive. Use caution when driving in this area.

Because of water utility improvements, Hells Bells Road between Parkhill Drive and Marsh Road will be closed to through traffic (local traffic allowed) all week.

Construction will begin near the intersection of Northridge Drive and Russell Way for the Fulstone Wetlands project. Work will be off-street, but there may be occasional delays due to the unloading of heavy equipment. Use caution.
