Project Update:

I-475 Widening and Dorr Street Interchange

DATE CHANGE Additional local impacts beginning Tuesday, March 24

BOWLING GREEN (Tuesday, March 17) - While westbound Dorr St. traffic between Holland-Sylvania Rd. and McCord Rd. remains detoured, work at the McCord Road intersection with Dorr Street requires new traffic impacts.

Beginning Tuesday, March 24, through October:

• Westbound Dorr St. closure extends 2,000 feet west of McCord Rd.
  Eastbound Dorr St. remains open.
• Northbound McCord Rd. closed 2,000 feet north and south of Dorr St.
  Southbound McCord Rd. remains open.

Crews will use the new lane restrictions to continue utility work along Dorr St., as well as begin removing and replacing wider pavement on the four legs approaching the intersection of Dorr St. and McCord Rd. in preparation for the roundabout that will be constructed later in the project.
