Heads Up, Williston ND: West Broadway Reconstruction Project Gets Underway
Travel around downtown Williston is about to get a little more hectic as the West Broadway Reconstruction Project moves into its next phase.
City officials are advising residents and visitors to prepare for construction activity in the project area between Main Street and 2nd Avenue West beginning Monday, June 29, 2026. Crow River Construction is scheduled to mobilize to the site that day, allowing work to officially get underway on the reconstruction project.


Drivers Should Expect Delays and Plan Ahead
While the start of construction does not necessarily mean full closures right away, motorists should expect to see crews, equipment, and traffic control devices in and around the roadway. Drivers traveling through the area may encounter minor delays, lane adjustments, or brief changes in traffic flow as workers begin setting up and preparing the site.
The reconstruction project is expected to bring long-term improvements to West Broadway, but in the short term it will likely create some inconvenience for those who regularly travel through the downtown corridor. Commuters, business customers, and anyone with appointments or errands in the area are encouraged to plan ahead and allow extra time for travel.

Construction zones can change quickly from day to day, and conditions may shift as the project progresses. Residents are encouraged to use caution and remain patient while work is underway. Although the temporary traffic impacts may be frustrating, the project is aimed at improving one of Williston’s key roadways for the future.
For now, anyone traveling between Main Street and 2nd Avenue West should be prepared for a slower drive and a few extra delays as the West Broadway Reconstruction Project gets started.
