There will be construction on Fourth Street from the off-ramp to Civic Center Drive beginning today.

One southbound lane will be closed from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Depending on how much work is completed, the closure also may be in effect on Friday and Saturday. However, work is expected to be completed by noon on Friday.

Traffic service officers will be directing traffic in the area for the duration of the lane closure, but it is expected to create a traffic slowing and may impact people’s commute.
