Construction work affecting the eastbound Lane of Rose Crossing has been delayed until Thursday, Aug. 8 and Friday, Aug. 9, officials said. 

The scheduled sewer taps for Everhome Suites are expected to cause lane closures from the Kalispell Ford dealership to the four-way stop at Jefferson Boulevard.  

Temporary signs and flaggers will be in place to guide traffic, and officials urge motorists to exercise caution navigating through work zones. 

Officials initially expected work to begin in the area on Tuesday and last through Wednesday.
