The closure is expected to last most of the day, depending on “utility locates and conditions encountered during the repair,” according to a news release from the city.

“Drivers should avoid the block when possible and use alternate routes around the work area. No fire hydrants are currently out of service,” according to the release.

The city will provide more information if the timeline or traffic impacts change, according to the release.
