Work to smooth Highway 395 in Kennewick and Highway 224 in West Richland by replacing old asphalt with new continues next week.

One lane closures will happen in each direction on Highway 395 between Kennewick Avenue and the Interstate 82 interchange from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. Monday through Friday.

Washington State Patrol will be helping with traffic control.

This $2.8 million project, which includes safety improvements such as guardrail and sign upgrades and drainage improvements, is scheduled to be completed by the end of August.

In West Richland, Highway 224 will be down to one lane in each direction starting Monday as state transportation crews grind and repave the road.

Hours are 8 p.m. to 5 a.m. Monday through Friday.

Asphalt is being replaced on Highway 224 from Bombing Range Road to Highway 240 and on Highway 240 from Hagen and Robertson roads to Swift Boulevard.
