Spokane Local Frequency: Road Work, Windstorm Recovery, and Robot Success
Good morning, this is your Spokane Local Frequency for Monday, March 23rd.
Kicking off today with a big heads-up for drivers in Spokane Valley: South Barker Road between East Sprague and East Appleway is closing right now for a massive reconstruction project thatll run clean through June. Crews are widening it to three lanes, adding five near Appleway, plus bike lanes, sidewalks, and better stormwater systems to make it safer and smoother for everyone hitting the road daily. Through traffic is detoured west on Appleway and Sprague, but locals in the zone keep access, and watch for Appleway to Laberry closing mid-April with a temp road popping up nearby. This upgrade means fewer potholes and more room to bike or stroll come summer, but plan those detours to keep your commute zippy.
Shifting to brighter news, Avista crews are wrapping up power restoration after last nights windstorm battered Eastern Washington and North Idaho, knocking out lights for over 61,000 customers at its peak. Most folks should be back online soon, but if youre still in the dark, check their updatesthose winds packed a punch, reminding us to secure those outdoor setups before the next gust.
For the thinkers and doers, Gonzaga University hosts a free panel tonight at 6 PM in the Jepson Center Wolff Auditorium on Housing Affordability and Homelessness in Spokane. Experts dive into fresh Point-in-Time Count data, system trends, and city strategies, sparking real talk on how we tackle these challenges hitting families and neighborhoods hard. Its open to all, perfect for grabbing insights that could shape tomorrows solutions.
Sports fans, gear up for high school soccer heating up at ONE Spokane StadiumRogers takes on North Central today, with more matchups like West Valley versus North Central on Thursday. Nothing beats that hometown roar as our kids battle it out.
And shoutout to our local robotics whizzes: Spokane teams like 1595 The Dragons, 2147 CHUCK, and Valley squad 10416 Radical Raccoons are crushing it in the Pacific Northwest FIRST Robotics district after strong showings in Yakima and Bellevue last weekend. These innovators are building bots that inspire the next gen of engineers right here at home.
Whether youre dodging construction, catching the panel, or cheering soccer goals, heres to a day full of Spokane spirit.
