Due to inclement weather conditions preparations for the upcoming Ninth Avenue traffic shift over Carpenters Creek has been rescheduled. Drivers will encounter the following traffic impacts:

• Wednesday, Jan. 26: Current travel lanes on the northbound portion of the bridge will be shifted slightly to the east and into the gore area (the area marked by yellow slanted painted lines on the pavement near the Publix shopping center). Drivers should use caution and be prepared to stop or slow down when needed. 
• Wednesday, Feb. 2: Springhill Drive will be temporarily closed at Ninth Avenue to allow crews to reconstruct the roadway. Traffic destined for Springhill Drive may utilize Royce Street, Birchwood Place, and Hillsdale Drive. Drivers may also access Springhill Drive via Bayou Boulevard. 

All construction activities are weather-dependent and may be rescheduled in the event of inclement weather.
