Nutley Street Culvert Project

This project mitigates flooding issues associated with the existing undersized culvert and the proposed design will replace the existing culvert with twin 10-foot by 6-foot culverts.  This project will involve modification of traffic and lane closures along Nutley Street, SW, from February 2026 to February 2027.

This project is currently in Phase 3 of construction, which involves the temporary closure of multiple southbound lanes on Nutley Street, SW, just north of the Marshall Road, SW, intersection.  This Phase 3 of construction is anticipated to continue until the end of November 2026, and the lane closures will remain after work hours.
