Clarksville Intersection Improvement Project Requires Temporary Street Closures
Thursday, August 20, 2009 | 07:38am
Nashville, Tenn. – A major intersection improvement project will require the temporary closure of some Clarksville streets in the coming days. The project is located at the intersections of Riverside Drive/Kraft Street (US 41A) and North 2nd/New Providence Boulevard (SR 12 at SR 13). It includes the removal of the existing riding surface, installation of new asphalt, curb, gutter, sidewalks, and storm drain system. The intersection will also be widened to include additional turn lanes and crosswalks.
Beginning Monday, August 24, 2009, Kraft Street and a portion of North Second Street will be closed for approximately seven days so the existing riding surface can be removed and replaced. For the duration of the closure, traffic will be shifted to the Riverside Drive side of the intersection. Kraft Street traffic will be detoured around the work zone. Drivers are urged to seek an alternate route if at all possible.
