Replacement of a water pipe is causing East Rosemary Street to be closed to through traffic between Hillsborough and Henderson Streets.

The roadway will be closed from nine o’clock in the morning until four o’clock in the afternoon on weekdays beginning Monday.

Officials say the project “may be completed in the spring of 2017, but the timetable is subject to change due to weather and other factors.”

Driveway access along the closed portion of the roadway could be impacted when contractors are installing a pipe directly in front of a driveway. Officials say the contractor will notify those who will be affected in advance.

Drivers using the route for through traffic are asked to use alternative routes until the work is completed.

More information on the project is available at OWASA’s website.
