U.S. 127 lane closures
scheduled today
Butler County (Friday, May 19, 2017) – Due to
last night’s heavy rain and high water, backfilling of bridge piers will be done
today on the U.S 127 bridge near 2650 Hamilton Eaton Road.
Watch for lane
closures just outside of New Miami, near the Norfolk Southern railroad tracks;
traffic will be maintained by flaggers.
Arrow boards
and/or signs will be in place to alert motorists of the lane closures. All work
is contingent upon weather.
To help ensure the
safety of the construction workers as well as the traveling public, motorists
should remain alert, reduce their speed and watch for stopped traffic while
passing through the work zone.
For ongoing
traffic, construction and weather-related information, please check www.OHGO.com.
