The following are impacts for the upcoming week to be aware of:  Work the week of November 28 to December 2

Traffic has shifted and motorists are now into a head-to-head configuration on the southbound side of the roadway from Laurel Street to Savage Avenue (traffic will remain in this configuration through winter 2023).

Wednesday, November 30 through Friday, December 2 crews will be paving US 287.
Westbound road closures remain in place at Parkway Drive, Forrest Street, Lynn Street, and the westbound exit from Lamar Community College.
Periodic, occasional delays at westbound Memorial Drive.
Motorists can expect minor delays as flaggers guide equipment in and out of the work zone.

Travel Impacts:
Monday – Friday, November 28 to December 2, from sunup to sundown, minor delays can occur along US 287.
11-foot lane restrictions in place 24/7.
