MOSES LAKE — It being spring and all, roadwork is starting up not only on state and county highways, but also in municipalities around town. A couple of projects are scheduled for Moses Lake before the end of April.
One is planned for Tuesday along Road L Northeast between the East Wheeler Road intersection and Bonanza Street. Southbound lanes will be closed to allow work on a construction project along the road.
A second project is planned for a late April start. Construction crews will be adding flashing beacons at the crosswalk at the intersection of Knolls Vista Drive and Stratford Road along with other upgrades.
Curb ramps that are compliant with ADA ramps will be added; an “accessible pedestrian signal” will be added to accommodate people with impaired hearing or vision.
The sidewalks on both sides of Stratford will be closed at times during the construction, and drivers can expect intermittent lane closures in each direction on Stratford, according to a city press release.

AC Sheriff Wagner to run for reelection
RITZVILLE — Adams County Sheriff Dale Wagner will run for reelection this year, he announced earlier this week. “Serving as sheriff since 2015 has been the greatest honor of my life,” Wagner wrote in the announcement. “Leading the dedicated men and women of our sheriff’s office means a great deal to our community, and to me, because a strong, professional, and committed team directly impacts the safety and well-being of every citizen.” Wagner, a veteran of the ACSO with more than 28 years of experience, was elected sheriff in 2015 after working as a deputy, then as a detective, a sergeant and eventually as undersheriff, according to the announcement. He cited the ACSO’s work to upgrade the jail, update equipment and training and work with youth among his successes.
