Portion of Broadway Avenue to be closed for three weeks

(From the City of Springfield)

Broadway Avenue will be closed between Republic Road and Sylvania Street for three weeks beginning 6 a.m. Monday, Aug. 28 for utility and street improvements associated with the Republic Road Phase 3 widening project.

Motorists are advised to use the marked detour. The closure is weather pending. Access to properties within this area will remain open, but an alternate path may be needed.

The Republic Road Phase 3 widening project will widen Republic Road to five lanes from just west of Parkcrest Avenue to Fairview Avenue. The project will include the addition of bike lanes, sidewalks, stormwater infrastructure, gas and water utility renewals, and a new traffic signal at Broadway Avenue and Republic Road. The project will be funded through the voter-approved 1/4-cent Capital Improvement Sales Tax.
