Beginning
Wednesday, February 7, 2001 at 9:00 A.M., MSD will narrow to one
eastbound lane and one westbound lane of Shelbyville Road between
Breckenridge Lane and St. Matthews Avenue. Traffic will be reduced to
one lane in each direction for approximately two weeks.
MSD's
contractors will be working around the clock to replace a collapsed
15-inch trunk sewer that services hundreds of homes and businesses in
the St. Matthews area. The trunk sewer, which was installed in 1937
has collapsed in several locations and must be replaced to prevent
wastewater backups and interruptions in service. MSD television
inspection crews discovered the collapsed section during routine
inspections.
MSD suggests
that motorists take alternate routes, if possible, especially during
rush hours. An average of 64,000 vehicles pass through this section of
roadway each day.
