In addition to installation of new Interstate 69 signage, the contractor will be restricting traffic to one lane at two locations in Caldwell County starting Monday.
Traffic will be restricted to one lane in both directions along the corridor between the 4- and 7-mile marker in Caldwell County to allow drainage work in the median. All traffic will be moved to the right-hand or driving lane in this work zone.
Westbound traffic will be restricted to one lane between the 10- and 9-mile marker along the roadway in Caldwell County to allow drainage work along the right of way. All westbound traffic in this work zone will move to the left-hand or passing lane.
Work at these sites is expected to take just over a week, weather permitting.
These work zones are among several that will be required through the summer construction season as part of a $9.9 million project to bring the section of former parkway up to federal standards for interstate highways. Other improvements include upgrading ramp tapers and raising bridges to meet clearance requirements.
