Portion Of Hillsboro Street In Oxford Getting Resurfaced

/by

Part of Hillsboro Street in Oxford is getting a facelift, and city staff have said the improvements will take several weeks to complete.

Beginning on Monday, Sept. 23, Hillsboro Street, from Lewis Street to College Street will be affected, so drivers in and around that area can expect detours. No street parking will be allowed between the hours of 7 a.m. and 7 p.m., but city staff said nearby public parking is available.

Vehicles parked on the street within the work zone during the day may be subject to towing.

H.G. Reynolds is in charge of the project, which begins with the milling of the existing asphalt followed by resurfacing.

“While we aim to minimize disruptions, some road closures and detours will be necessary. However, one lane will remain open for through traffic,” according to a statement issued by City Communications Specialist Sabrina Richards.

 

Sewer Line Project To Detour Traffic Along Oxford’s Hillsboro Street

Oxford drivers are reminded to pack a little patience as they maneuver around a downtown detour that will be in place in the upcoming weeks.

According to information from City of Oxford Communications Specialist Sabrina Richards, H.G. Reynolds Co. will be installing sewer lines along a portion of Hillsboro Street, making a detour necessary.

The work will be conducted from Lewis Street to MLK/ Broad Street. There will be barricades at Lewis/West Spring Street, Orange Street, Granville Street, Hillsboro/Broad Street and then in one lane at Hillsboro/ West Spring Street to block traffic headed into town.

The detour will only be up during working hours from Monday through Thursday, stretching into Fridays if inclement weather delays work.

The barricades will be removed at the end of each workday for two-way traffic to resume.

There was no word on how long the detour will be in place or how long this part of the sewer line installation will take.
