This “severe road damage” from the private construction project is blocking the roads with construction, and will likely continue for several weeks. A block of Queen Anne Avenue is closed between W Roy Street and Mercer Street while the company works on fixing the damage caused by trying to install utilities at a nearby housing development.that was shut down in 1940. They now must reinforce the tunnel structure and repave the road before it can be reopened.
