Street Closure – 33rd Street

Beginning on Tuesday, June 7, 2022, 33rd Street will be closed between Pepper Ridge Avenue and Chapelwood Avenue to allow crews to reconstruct the intersection of 33rd Street and Sycamore Avenue.  Traffic on Sycamore Avenue will be shifted to the west side of the intersection and will be reduced to one lane in each direction.

As construction progresses through the summer, Sycamore Avenue traffic will shift to the east side of Sycamore Avenue and 33rd Street will remain closed between Pepper Ridge Avenue and Chapelwood Avenue. The intersection work is anticipated to be complete by early August.

Drivers are urged to use caution and reduced speeds while travelling near the construction area and may want to consider alternate routes.
