CLARKSVILLE, TN (CLARKSVILLE NOW) – Construction on the first phase to realign Dunbar Cave Road at Rossview Road is complete, and the road is now open for motorists to use.
This phase of the project elevated the existing roadway so that the realignment to Cardinal Lane can be completed at a later time, according to a City of Clarksville news release.
Work will continue throughout the area, but traffic can resume in time for the opening of Clarksville-Montgomery County Schools next week. The Street Department had accelerated the timeline to make sure that happened.
“Progress is painful, but it is short-term pain for a longer-term gain, and in this case the road improvements along Rossview Road and Dunbar Cave Road will improve traffic safety for everyone,” said Mayor Joe Pitts. “I appreciate the diligence of our contractor for moving as quickly as possible on this rather large project – actually getting it done ahead of schedule.”…
