KUB crews will close the eastbound curbside lane of traffic on a section of Merchant Drive between Merchants Center Boulevard and the southbound entrance ramp at the I-75 interchange from 9 a.m. - 3 p.m. on Tuesday, March 13, as utility work is completed.
One eastbound lane, the center turn lane, and both westbound lanes will remain open on Merchant Drive while this work is completed. The southbound entrance ramp onto I-75 will also remain open while this work is completed.
Some listed closures may extend beyond the scheduled times depending on the conditions encountered during excavation and construction. Appropriate traffic control measures will be in place at each location to assist motorists traveling in these areas. Due to the ongoing presence of workers and equipment, motorists are advised to use extreme caution and expect temporary delays in these areas.
KUB is a municipal utility serving Knox and parts of seven adjacent counties and provides electric, gas, water, and wastewater services to more than 439,000 customers.
