Ediz Hook work

PORT ANGELES — Drivers on Ediz Hook are urged to use caution in the area because of construction traffic that is expected to last into mid-January 2017.

According to a news release from the city, a construction contractor will be delivering rock material out to the hook to rebuild part of the armoring on its outside edge.

This process started Monday.
