Initial work is scheduled to begin on Monday, February 6 at Billingsley Drive, which will be closed to through traffic intermittently for approximately a week for drainage and resurface preparation. 

The other areas listed above will undergo similar traffic disruptions due to resurface preparation over the coming months. 

The overall project consists of pavement patching, milling, resurfacing, sidewalk replacement, storm sewers, concrete curb and pavement markings.
