Construction season is in full swing on Mountain Home Road

The Chelan PUD has an ongoing project with some traffic impacts near Leavenworth.

Starting July 1, PUD crews will begin the dirt work on the project’s second section starting from the canal to Nighthawk Ridge Lane (second project section). Working hours will be Monday through Thursday from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Due to the rocky terrain, the PUD will need to implement full road closures. During the crew’s working hours, they will open the road at the top of each hour for 15 minutes.
