During this time, drivers won’t be allowed to drive through the part of Stateline Road while closed. The county will set up a specific detour route and already provided a map showing the alternate road to help drivers to navigate around the closure.

There will be traffic management measures in place in the work zone to help drivers and keep everyone safe. However, county officials are encouraging motorists to plan ahead and use alternative routes whenever possible to avoid delays.

The Public Works Department pointed out that the closure is just temporary and needed to finish scheduled work safely and efficiently. Residents and travelers who regularly use Stateline Road are advised to allow extra travel time and remain alert for posted signs and instructions.
