The first phase of the Geddes Road/LeForge Road project will begin with the replacement of a culvert spanning the Snidecor Drain, and the installation of a new water main. Consequently, LeForge Road, between Geddes Road and Clark Road, will be CLOSED to through traffic effective Monday, March 3, beginning at 9:00 a.m., weather permitting. It is anticipated that this segment of LeForge Road will REMAIN CLOSED through June 2008 to reconstruct the road during Phase II of the project. However, please be advised that due to weather conditions, all dates are tentative and subject to change. The DETOUR for this road closure will be Geddes Road east to Prospect Road, south to Clark Road, east to LeForge Road.
The improvements to the Geddes Road/LeForge Road intersection are being completed in association with the Hyundai development. Upon completion, the current intersection configuration will be widened to accommodate center left-turn lanes for all approaches. A new traffic signal will be also installed. Please check your local newspaper for continual updates, or the WCRC website at www.wcroads.org/roadwork/.
To ensure the safety of road crews, please reduce speeds and drive cautiously through work zones. The Road Commission thanks you in advance for your patience as these necessary improvements to the County road system are completed.
