Beginning Monday, June 22nd
Bluff Boulevard will be closed to all through traffic from South 14th Street to College Avenue for construction.
This road closure is due to the reconstruction of Bluff Boulevard. This closure is expected to remain in place for the remainder of the construction season, so that crews can properly replace storm and sanitary sewers, construct retaining walls, and reconstruct Bluff Boulevard.
Bluff Boulevard is also reduced to two lanes only beginning at 2nd Avenue South for ongoing utility coordination.
Motorists can continue south along Bluff Boulevard from 2nd Avenue South but will need to exit onto a side street before South 14th Street, where the road closure begins.
Road Closures & Detours:
To ensure public safety and facilitate construction, Bluff Boulevard will be closed to all traffic between South 14th Street and College Avenue.
Traffic is currently being detoured to Manufacturing Drive and Harts Mill Road via 2nd Avenue South, South 18th Street, and College Avenue.
Traffic destined for the Lincoln Way or Wal-Mart area should continue to utilize the global detour in place from south bound 4th Street to Camanche Avenue.
Access to Local Businesses:
During this construction, access on Bluff Boulevard will remain open.
Signs will be installed detouring traffic to the following local business during construction.
Bob’s One Stop (from north on Bluff Boulevard)
Cornerstone Wellness (from north on Bluff Boulevard)
Clinton Convenience and Liquor (from south via College Avenue or Harts Mill Road to Manufacturing Drive)
