Portage Avenue Underpass Closed a Third Week

Another closure of the Portage Avenue underpass is planned for next week.

Beginning Monday, motorist access will be prohibited from 9:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. all next week and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. next Friday.

Officials say this closure is necessary for crews to work on the west lane of the underpass and to install new sewer lines.

Pedestrian traffic through the area will still be permitted during the closure.
