Beginning Monday, 13th Street will be closed to westbound traffic between Main Street and Oak, with eastbound traffic remaining open. 13th Street will remain closed for the next several months during its reconstruction from Main to Milner.

Traffic control signs will be in place detouring traffic to Eighth Street.

Since the construction involves the replacement of all of the pavement including the sidewalk, curb and gutter, and parking area, there will be no on-street parking allowed in the construction zone. Residents should find alternate means of accessing their property, such as alleys and side roads. If necessary to walk near areas of construction, use caution. Also, since there will be displaced parking and more traffic in alleys and side roads, motorists are asked to use caution and be sure not to park in such a way as to block traffic.
