PORT ANGELES — Most of the fencing around The Gateway will be brought down Friday morning, but the $14.7 million downtown transit center won’t be opened just yet.
The fencing around the project’s west parking garage and transit lane will be removed, but the fencing will remain around the pavilion because a structural repair beneath the building has yet to be approved.
Removing the fencing around the parking garage and transit lane will allow Clallam Transit to open the project to public parking and move bus stops from Oak Street to that location. Clallam Transit General Manager Terry Weed said the transit agency is still a few weeks away from making that happen.
The fencing can be removed because the city of Port Angeles approved occupancy for those parts of the project earlier this week.
