6/9/2023: Sidewalk and driveway construction has begun near the intersection of Poage Farm and will continue towards Mt. Pleasant throughout the summer. The road will continue to be closed to thru traffic for the summer. Nixle notifications are being sent to advise residents of times when the road is open to traffic, which will generally be Friday thru Sunday.
5/22/2023: Trees have been cleared and retaining wall work will be completed this week. No work is planned for next week (May 29-June 2). Sidewalk construction will begin June 5 at the Poage Farm intersection and proceed toward Mt. Pleasant Avenue. This work is expected to take several weeks. The road will continue to be closed to thru traffic for the summer and additional road closures/barricades at specific work zones may be required as well where sight distance prevents safe passage of 2-way traffic in the work zone.
4/17/2023: Work is ongoing to clear the trees in the area of the proposed sidewalk. Duke Energy is relocating a few utility poles that are in conflict with the proposed sidewalk.

Work on the sections of retaining wall required for the sidewalk will begin within the next few weeks.
