Traffic Impacts

North Segment – Between Platte Avenue and Airport Road

Beginning Sunday night, March 12, crews will shift traffic on South Academy Boulevard between Platte Avenue and Airport Road to the outside lanes to allow crews to safely perform median removals and construction of detour pavement. After traffic is shifted, concrete barriers will be placed on southbound Academy Boulevard, reducing traffic to one lane for approximately five weeks while crews perform underground utility work. As underground work is complete, crews will reinstate two lanes of traffic on southbound Academy Boulevard. Expect delays and use alternative routes.

South Segment – South Academy Boulevard between East Fountain Boulevard and Jet Wing Drive

Crews begin site preparations on Monday, March 13, including locating underground utilities and installing temporary traffic control. To safely perform this work, crews will require daytime lane closures on South Academy Boulevard between Fountain Boulevard and Jet Wing Drive.
