The four-lane road will be closed in both directions near Ray Avenue from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 8.

Contractors for R.J. Corman Railroad Group doing the track repairs will install detour signs. Drivers should seek an alternate way around downtown that day, or follow the detour signs to be posted.
