Marksheffel Road will close to all traffic from south of Dublin Boulevard to north of Tarren Heights overnight on Thursday, April 24 from 7 p.m. to 5:30 a.m. and for the weekend starting at 7 p.m. on Friday, April 25 to 5:30 a.m. on Monday, April 28.
A detour will be in place, allowing local access only to Reach Church and the Mountain Valley Preserve neighborhood (Tarren Heights) from the south at the Stetson Hills Boulevard/Marksheffel Road intersection. The signed detour route directs Marksheffel Road travelers to use Peterson Road between Dublin Boulevard and Stetson Hills Boulevard.
Crews plan to trench across Marksheffel Road to place a utility duct bank and drainage pipes below ground. Travel lanes will be restriped for a new traffic pattern when the road reopens on Monday morning.
