Traffic Advisory: Downtown Underground project update for week of July 24

Spartanburg Water crews will continue working the week of July 24 on the water line replacement on Daniel Morgan Avenue between Ezell Street and Henry Street. The southbound lane of traffic on South Daniel Morgan Avenue past the intersection with Harris Place extending to Henry Street will closed on Tuesday, July 25, and detoured onto Harris Place and Spring Street as crews continue to lay the 12-inch water main. Wednesday, July 26, and Thursday, July 27, the southbound lane of traffic on Daniel Morgan will be reduced to a single lane to make tie-ins.  Appropriate traffic control will be in place and access to area businesses will be maintained.

The rehabilitation of the 10-inch water main on West Main Street will also continue this week. Lane closures for westbound traffic on West Main Street from the intersection of St. John Street will continue toward Forest Street and will require that traffic be diverted toward the center/turn lane from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. A complete closure of the westbound lane of West Main Street between Daniel Morgan Avenue and St. John Street will be in place intermittently this week.  Traffic control measures will be in place to re-direct traffic and maintain traffic flow.  Access to area businesses will be maintained.

The Greenville Branch sewer interceptor rehabilitation project, the installation of 11,000 feet of sewer line that runs parallel to Greenville Branch Creek, also continues this week. The project spans from the Northside area, crosses sections of downtown Spartanburg and ends on Crescent Avenue. Intermittent lane closures for Arch Street between Howard Street and Brawley Street are also planned this week. Traffic flow will be maintained at all times on this section of Arch Street.
