The city of Spokane Valley has announced that Balfour Road between 13th and 14th is closed to all traffic until Nov. 4 for utility work. Make sure you detour around that area until it reopens. Also, there is some landscaping work going on at the new roundabout at Flora and Mission that is affecting traffic flow. Even though the weather is getting colder some road construction projects are still ongoing, so keep an eye out for work crews.
