The purpose of the closure remains the same: to facilitate necessary construction work that will improve the safety and efficiency of the roadways. The designated detour will also remain the same, directing motorists to use Tuskeegee Avenue, Wilson Street, Canal Street, Taylor Avenue, Delmar Street, and Martin Luther King Boulevard to navigate around the construction zone.
Drivers who rely on this route should make a note of the new dates and plan their travel accordingly. Officials thank the public for their patience and cooperation as they work to complete these road improvements.
