Horn Rapids Road Closure And Detour To Shift August 10 (Photo)
- 08/07/26
The City of Richland is advising drivers of an upcoming change to the Horn Rapids Road closure and detour associated with the North Horn Rapids Sewer Extension Project.
Beginning mid-morning Monday, August 10, the contractor will shift the current traffic routing on Horn Rapids Road. The mid-morning transition will allow Framatome employees arriving for the morning shift to use the existing route. Employees leaving later that day will need to use the new route via Kingsgate Way, which will also be the access route beginning Tuesday morning.
Once the traffic shift is in place:
- Horn Rapids Road between Kingsgate Way and the Framatome main entrance will reopen to traffic.
- Horn Rapids Road between the Framatome main entrance and Stevens Drive will close.
- Access to Framatome will be available only from the west via Kingsgate Way.
- Battelle Boulevard will serve as the designated detour route.
The new traffic configuration is expected to remain in place through mid-October while construction continues.
Drivers traveling through the area should follow posted detour signs, allow additional travel time, and use caution around construction crews and equipment.
The North Horn Rapids Sewer Extension Project will extend sanitary sewer infrastructure to support current and future development in the Horn Rapids area.
The City appreciates the public’s patience as this important infrastructure work continues.
