Two road closures starting Thursday, May 30, will create heavier than normal traffic in the Tideflats for a few days.
Lincoln Avenue detour:
The City of Tacoma and Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railroad are partnering to repair the crossings on Lincoln Avenue near Gog-Le-Hi-Te Wetlands.
ROAD CLOSURE: Thursday, May 30, 8 a.m.
