The Historic Big Piney Creek Bridge on Highway 123 in Johnson County is scheduled to close around the clock from 7 a.m. Monday, August 31, to 6 p.m. Thursday, December 3.
Weather permitting, the closure will allow crews to perform bridge rehabilitation work. Highway 123 will remain open to local traffic only on either side of the closure.
A signed detour will be in place. To reach the north side of the closure, traffic will take Highway 123 south to Highway 164, Highway 164 east to Highway 7, then Highway 7 north back to Highway 123. To reach the south side of the closure, traffic will take Highway 123 north to Highway 7, Highway 7 south to Highway 164, then Highway 164 west back to Highway 123.
Digital message boards, construction barrels, barricades, and signage will be in place to notify motorists of the closures and detour routes.
For more information visit the project website.
This work is part of ARDOT’s ongoing commitment to maintain and improve the state’s bridge infrastructure.
