While no full lane closures are planned for this project, northbound traffic will need to shift lanes through the work area. Drivers should also expect reduced speeds for worker safety in the northbound lanes as this section of Forum Boulevard transitions from four lanes to two lanes. However, southbound traffic is expected to flow normally.

To notify drivers of these projects, traffic message boards will be in place. All lanes are expected to reopen by 5 p.m. on Thursday, March 26, weather permitting.

These projects are in addition to previously announced road work on North Garth Avenue on March 23 and South Fairview Road on March 24-25. Drivers are advised to plan their routes accordingly and follow any posted detours or speed limit reductions for their safety and the safety of the workers.
