Notice is hereby given that the Ferndale City Council will hold a special meeting on Monday, July 30th, beginning at 5 p.m. at the Ferndale City Hall located at 2095 Main St., Ferndale, Washington, to consider the following:
Please be advised that construction of a compact roundabout at Portal Way and I-5 Northbound Exit 263 will begin on Monday, July 30, 2018. During the first couple weeks of work, drivers should expect impacts on Portal Way as crews widen the intersection. Flaggers will be on hand to direct traffic through the construction zone.
