LUBBOCK, Texas– Crews will move the eastbound US 84 frontage road bridge repairs at Interstate 27 onto the westbound US 84 frontage road bridge on Tuesday.
The removal and set up of barricades on the bridges will take place from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
According to a press release, this will require both east and westbound US 84 frontage road bridges to be closed to traffic. Frontage road traffic will be detoured around the area via 50th Street and 66th Streets.
First new segment of I-27 approved for south of Lubbock as part of Ports to Plains
Eastbound frontage road will reopen once barricades are moved and westbound frontage road traffic will be reduced to one lane. Additionally, the inside left lane on the northbound I-27 frontage road and left lane on Avenue A will also be closed to traffic, said the release.
The release said, the US 84 frontage road bridges and other I-27 bridges are part of a $1.9 million project to replace bridge joints and bearing pads, make concrete repairs and upgrade the guardrail fencing on the bridge structures.
