Road Closure Reminder in Dogwood Neighborhood

Beginning next week, some residents living in the Dogwood South Subdivision will need to find an alternate route through the neighborhood due to a scheduled road closure on one of the popular thoroughfares. 

A portion of Dogwood South Lane will close on Tuesday, May 28, while contractors working on the White Oak Ditch project will close a portion of Dogwood South Lane.  The road will be closed for approximately 45 days while work crews replace the deteriorating metal culverts under the road with more resilient concrete ones.

District 8 Police Juror Doug Rimmer says that the completion of the project will bring a lasting solution to the chronic drainage problem faced by residents in the South Dogwood area. He adds, “This project is a significant step towards improving drainage, reducing erosion, standing water, and the associated mosquito breeding issues.”

The contractor has installed an advanced closure notice sign on Dogwood Trail near Stockwell Road.
