This is a heads-up for commuters and local residents: F. P. Lucas Blvd. is scheduled for a temporary shutdown, and you'll need to plan your detours accordingly. The City of Mesquite has announced that from Oct. 16 to Oct. 18, a stretch of the boulevard between McKenzie Road and E. Cartwright Road will be closed to through traffic.
For those living or working nearby, this means planning to avoid unexpected delays. The city's press release has stated that "local traffic and emergency vehicles will have property access during closure," which should minimize inconvenience for those in the immediate area.
Officials recommend following the city's social media for the latest information on the closure and any changes.
