A Carrboro Public Works Department project to remove a failing retaining wall will affect traffic on Jones Ferry Road between Monday, April 7 and Friday, April 11, the town said earlier this week.

During the extent of the work, traffic on the road will be controlled by flaggers from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., with alternating one-way traffic between Barnes and Bim Streets, just west of downtown Carrboro and near the Orange Water and Sewer Authority building. There will be a dedicated pedestrian lane to detour sidewalk traffic around the work area.

The town of Carrboro is asking motorists to be please be patient with the work crew and to obey all flaggers during the project.
