Motorists should watch for temporary lane closures and traffic <br />congestion in work zones, particularly in the stretch between I-105 and Harlow Road. <br />This will be a mobile operation with crews using cones, signs, and an arrow board to <br />establish a work zone and to keep traffic moving along as best as possible. Crews will close <br />travel lanes only when necessary to perform their work. Efforts will be made to work in the <br />northbound lanes during the morning commute so as not to disrupt southbound traffic during the <br />rush hour. Work is scheduled to end no later than 3 p.m. each day. <br />Please slow down when driving near workers in the roadway and respect the work <br />they’re doing to clean and maintain the public sewer system. <br /> <br /># # # <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Public Works Administration ?
