The expected duration of these closures will be approximately six to eight weeks.

“No detours will be posted for these closures.  Motorists are advised to find alternative routes and avoid this area due to anticipated traffic congestion.  Please use caution through construction zones and plan for additional travel time, changing road conditions and reduced vehicle speeds,” a city release stated.
