PULASKI COUNTY | October 24, 2024
Construction to widen Highway 67/167 to six lanes between Main Street and Vandenberg Boulevard in Jacksonville requires overnight closures of Vandenberg Boulevard between John Harden Drive and TP White Drive from 8 p.m. to 5 a.m. nightly Sunday night, October 27, through Friday morning, November 1.
Weather permitting, the closures will allow crews to place bridge beams for the new Highway 67/167 bridge over Vandenberg Boulevard.
Signed detours will be in place to navigate around the closure. See detour map NR 23-347-A for more information.
- Vandenberg Boulevard to east of Highway 67/167: Traffic will take John Harden Drive south to the new N. James Street Bridge and cross over to access east of
Highway 67/167. - Vandenberg Boulevard/N. 1st Street to west of Highway 67/167: Traffic will take
N. 1st Street south to W. Main Street and proceed to Marshall Road to access west of
Highway 67/167.
Accommodations will be made to allow emergency vehicles to access the closed road.
Traffic will be controlled with barricades and signage. The public is advised to be cautious when traveling in the work zone and watch for slower traffic speeds. Areas adjacent to the Interstate may experience noise impacts during nighttime hours.
