New Traffic Pattern on Prospect Road
Prospect Road was switched into a new traffic alignment on Friday, November 4, south of existing SR 52 in the new SR 52 realignment area. Both directions of travel are now in the permanent alignment with one lane open in each direction at this time. Drivers are advised to be extra alert to these changed conditions as construction continues to build the new SR 52.
Local Road Closings
Williams Cemetery Road is closed east of Wichers Road and McCabe Road. The closure is anticipated to remain in place until the fall of 2022. Access to the cemetery remains from Prospect Road.
Daily lane closures and flagging operations are likely throughout the construction area on numerous roads including but not limited to SR 52, Curley Road, McCabe Road, Prospect Rd and Clinton Ave. Motorists should use caution and be prepared to stop when necessary.
