Title

Approval of TDOT Construction Road Closure-US-70 (SR-1) and US-70N (SR-24)

 

Body

SUMMARY: TDOT has requested the approval of road closures on US-70 (SR-1) and US-70N (SR-24) at the Obed River for reconstruction work for the bridges. The attached form approval letters have been modified by City staff to contain the verbiage that both closures cannot occur at the same time. The road closure plans are attached and show the detours for each closure.

The Director of Engineering recommends the approval of the closures with the added verbiage and also recommends that Sparta Drive, at the intersection of Miller Avenue, be signed and restricted to right turns only during the closure or bridge signalization of US-70.

 

BUDGET ACCOUNT:

 

Recommended Action

NECESSARY COUNCIL ACTION: Approval of the closures, right turns only on Sparta Drive during closure and authorization of the Mayor to sign the form letters
