Construction began this month on the City and Borough of Juneau’s Capital Transit Valley Transfer Station project, located along Mendenhall Mall Road between Asiana Garden and Glacier Auto Parts/NAPA. Throughout September, there will be intermittent traffic delays and construction flagging during low-traffic daytime hours while CBJ-contractor Admiralty Construction performs underground utility work across Riverside Drive. The public is asked to use caution in the area and abide by traffic signage and flagging.

The overall project includes a new transit station that will be utilized as a rider transfer site, driver breakroom, public restroom, bus shelters, and parking lot for transit users. Several electric vehicle chargers and bicycle lockers will also be included. Construction work will include new water and sewer services, a new storm drain system, earthwork, concrete flatwork, and asphalt paving. Work is expected to take place through June 2022.
