Sections of A Street Northeast and Jackrabbit Street Northeast in Quincy remain closed for construction, with the intersection of A Street Northeast and Third Street Northeast closed through late September, according to a city of Quincy media release. The construction zone extends from Third Avenue to Sixth Avenue Northeast and along Sixth Avenue Northeast to B Street Northeast, with repaving, new sidewalks, and a guardrail between the street and railroad tracks planned. Utility upgrades, including new water and sewer mains and water reclamation infrastructure, cost $1.9 million and are being paid for by the city. Drivers are advised to avoid non-local traffic in restricted areas and follow detours near Quincy High School. Construction on the Hansen Road overpass west of Moses Lake will continue through late 2026 or early 2027, with the old bridge demolished and I-90 remaining open but with changing traffic patterns.
