Looming Road Closures from Awbrey Waterline Improvement Project
A waterline and sewer construction project, beginning on Jan. 15, will cause closures on Shevlin Park Road and Portland Avenue, according to a press release. The improvements will take place in multiple phases. Construction on Portland Avenue will occur in three stages.
Starting in Mid-January, the rehabilitation of the existing waterline along the Portland Avenue bridge will cause a complete closure of Portland Avenue between Wall Street and Steidl Road. A two-way traffic detour will be in place. Construction will also cause a single-lane closure of Shevlin Park Road, with detours switching as construction progresses. Final restoration of phase two improvements is expected to finish in spring 2025.
