The City of Richland is pleased to share an update on the Dallas Road Roundabouts Project. During the week of October 27, 2025, the contractor will complete paving work between Trowbridge Boulevard and Ava Way, marking a major milestone in the project’s progress. This phase will complete three of the four legs of both the Dallas Rd. & Trowbridge Blvd. and Dallas Rd. & Ava Way roundabouts.
Following the paving and striping work, crews will begin constructing a splitter island along Ava Way between Dallas Road and Gateway Avenue. During this time, Ava Way will be closed between Dallas Rd. and Gateway Ave. for approximately two to three weeks, with traffic detoured via Trowbridge Blvd. Both intersections will continue to operate as active roundabouts during this phase.
Once the Ava Way work is complete, construction will pause for the winter months due to anticipated cold temperatures. During this time, Dallas Road and both intersections will remain open to traffic under new roundabout conditions. Construction activities within the roadway are expected to resume in early spring 2026, weather permitting.
The City reminds drivers to travel carefully through the area and to anticipate minor delays during ongoing work. Project schedules remain subject to change based on weather and site conditions.
The Dallas Road Roundabouts Project will improve safety, reduce congestion, and enhance traffic flow in one of Richland’s key transportation corridors. The City appreciates the community’s patience and cooperation as crews work to complete these significant roadway improvements. For more information, visit richlandwa.gov/DallasRoad.
