Vine Street will remain open during the morning and afternoon rush hours both days. The intersection of 27th and Vine will remain open.

Also, the new Vine Street bridge over the Antelope Creek channel is now open. The new bridge is just north of the previous Vine Street at about 19th Street.
Remaining work on Vine Street includes pavement, sidewalks, retaining walls, landscaping, utilities and lighting. That work will require some lane closures throughout the summer. The speed limit will remain at 25 miles per hour. Vine Street is scheduled to have two lanes open in each direction by August 15.
