The Saline County Road and Bridge Department has announced the closing of part of Lockard Road for drainage work.
Lockard Road between N. Muir Road and N. Lightville Road will be closed to through traffic beginning Tuesday for replacement of a cross-road drainage structure. The road will be closed approximately two months.
Motorists are advised to allow a few extra minutes of travel time to reach their destinations. Local and emergency traffic will be provided access to private property within the sections of closed road at all times but only from the side upon which the property lies.
