-Staff reports-
Blacks Bluff Road at Brushy Branch remains closed for repairs to a wall on the bridge.
Floyd County Public Works Director Michael Skeen discussed the repairs during a Transportation Policy Committee meeting in September.
“One of our wing walls on that culvert has failed,” he said. “We met with some engineers and contractors and determined that the best way to fix that would be to install some sheet piles along that edge of the roads to stabilize it.”
The contractor will require a crane to sit in place, blocking both lanes.
The closure is between 7125 Blacks Bluff Road and Charles Arthur Road.
Traffic will be detoured onto Melson Road.
