Construction Mitigation Description
Renton Commons
215 Whitworth Ave S., Renton WA
Project Number 13-000771
The proposed construction is expected to start in mid-September 2017. Construction is expected to be
completed by the end of October 2018.
Construction activities will be restricted to the hours of 7:00 am to 8:00 pm Monday through Friday. Any
work on Saturdays will be limited to the house of 9:00 am to 8:00 pm. No work will occur on Sundays. All
hauling will be limited to 8:30 am to 3:30 pm Monday through Friday.
For this small compact site one construction entrance is proposed. The entrance will be shown on the TESC
plan, which will be included in the building permit submittal. Construction traffic is expected to approach site
from either Washington State Route 167 or Interstate 405. The map below shows a route to and from the
north and one to and from the south; both traveling primarily on major arterials. No truck compression
brakes or Jake brakes are to be used.

The construction entrance will be stabilized with 4” to 8” quarry spalls with a depth of 12. If dust from
construction traffic is not minimized sufficiently through the use of quarry spalls, a wheel wash will be
installed. To minimize other impacts from construction activities standard TESC measures will be
implemented such as a temporary construction fence surrounding the property and a silt fence to control
erosion. More detail on TESC measures will be included in the building permit submittal.
No special hours for construction or hauling are proposed. Much of the proposed construction activity is
expected to occur directly on the site and not in the public way. For activities that impact the public right of
way, such as the construction of a new sidewalk and connections to utilities, the general contractor will
submit a detailed traffic control plan to the City’s Public Works Department. Detailed traffic control plans will
be submitted to the City a minimum of three working days before any work in the public way is scheduled to
occur. If the work impacts a school bus route, the contractor will notify the Renton School District. Work
zone traffic control shall follow the standards of the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices. If a sidewalk
is impacted by the work, assistance and accommodation of pedestrian traffic shall be provided.
