First bridge placement project on the Lloyd4U project
EVANSVILLE, Ind. – A short-term weekend closure for Tekoppel Avenue is expected to begin Saturday morning October 5. Bridge crews will begin removing the westbound portion of the Lloyd Expressway bridge overhead.
Crews will close Tekoppel Avenue just north of Claremont Avenue and south of Corbierre Avenue to begin the demolition and replacement of the existing bridge on the westbound Lloyd Expressway lanes.
The closure is expected to begin at 6 a.m. Saturday morning and open on or after 6 p.m. Sunday evening after work is complete.
Local access will be maintained, but motorists wishing to travel north on Tekoppel Avenue will follow Claremont Avenue, Barker Avenue and Franklin Street.
