Work may slow traffic on Secor and Summit

6/16/2004

Sidewalk and driveway construction that began yesterday in front of the Showcase Cinemas on Secor Road in West Toledo will close the northbound right lane until the July Fourth weekend, the city transportation division announced.

Work also begins today on the Summit Street bridge over the Ottawa River, restricting traffic to one lane in each direction.

Traffic congestion is likely at the Secor Road site, which is in a busy commercial area, until work is completed July 2, city officials said.

The first phase of bridge reconstruction will involve rebuilding the southbound lanes. Two-way traffic will be maintained in the northbound lanes until that phase's completion, scheduled for Nov. 15.
