Traffic is already restricted with two-way traffic along this section of U.S. 60 from the Bridge Street intersection at mile-point 16.4 to just east of the Interstate 24 Downtown Business Loop/John Puryear Drive intersection at mile-point 17.8.
To help minimize further traffic disruptions during peak travel periods, the concrete pour will start at approximately 8 p.m. nightly and will be completed by 6 a.m. the following morning.
During the night concrete work, motorists can expect to encounter one lane traffic with alternating flow controlled by flaggers at points along this section to allow concrete trucks to off-load. Motorists should be alert for trucks moving in and out of this work zone.
Hi-Way Paving Inc. is the prime contractor on this $4.9 million highway improvement project. The work has a contract completion date of Nov. 30, 2013.
