Pleasant Run Road lane closure begins Monday
Pleasant Run reconstruction will require the reduction of
traffic to one lane to complete the project in a timely
fashion while minimizing the impact to residents.
Starting this week, traffic will be northbound only from L.D.
Lockett Road to John McCain Road. Southbound traffic will
detour on John McCain Road to Westcoat Drive or John
McCain Road to SH26.
This project will rebuild the roadway from Shelton Drive to
John McCain Road with the addition of ribbon curb and
pedestrian elements. It will also upsize the existing
waterline, add sanitary sewer, and improve the drainage
system along the corridor.
This project will be constructed in four phases with the first
and second north of L.D. Lockett Road and the third and
fourth phases from L.D. Lockett Road to Shelton Drive.
In order to minimize interruptions for residents the project
has been split into four phases. The one-way closure will
include the section between John McCain Road and L.D.
Lockett Road for phases 1 and 2, which is estimated to last
to Winter 2017. The one-way closure will shift to the
section between L.D. Lockett and Beverly Road for phases
3 and 4, which are estimated to run from Winter 2017 to
Spring 2018.
