The City will begin construction of the Lafayette Street Stormwater Project on Monday, July 14 and will take about 4 weeks to complete. During construction hours (6 AM to 4 PM), traffic will not be able to go down Lafayette St. but vehicles will always be able to exit Montwell Commons and drive up Lafayette St.
Since construction will halt around 4 PM each day, there should be little impact on evening events at the Clingman Center, dinner at the Old Red Mill, or late afternoon ice cream and snacks at Amy's Market. Flaggers will be at the Montwell Commons exit during the day so breakfast and lunch guests and people leaving the Clingman Center will be able to safely drive up Lafayette Street.
