Residents and motorists planning their night commutes will need to adjust their routes come next Monday. A significant segment of McCulloch Boulevard, from Capri Lane to Smoketree Avenue, is gearing up for a temporary shutdown. This closure, confirmed by Lake Havasu City, is for the necessary upkeep of Public Works Infrastructure, specifically to enhance the local water system.
Considering the potential disruption to both local enterprises and commuters, the work is going down when the sun does too—at night. The details, disclosed by city officials, set the start of this nocturnal activity firmly at 7:00 p.m. on August 12, with, a scheduled reopening at 3:00 a.m. on August 13. With these after-dark hours, the impact on day-to-day activities should be diminished.
Travelers need not worry about getting around, despite the hindrance. Detailed detour signs will guide those in vehicles around the closure, via both Mesquite and Swanson. It's a reminder to take heed when passing through zones of construction, especially at these later hours.
