Chickamauga and Chattanooga National Military Park is advising the public that the actual road closures for this project will begin in February 2015 and continue through June 2015.
The road closure will be completed using three phases of construction:
•
The first phase will begin on or about Feb. 2, 2015, and is scheduled to continue through March 26, 2015. This phase will include the traffic light replacement at the Reeds Bridge Road/McFarland Gap Road intersection, asphalt resurfacing extending to, but not including, the Glenn-Kelly Road/Alexander Bridge Road intersection.
Temporary employee and visitor parking to the Chickamauga Battlefield Visitor Center will be provided in North McDonald Field, adjacent to the visitor center. Handicap parking will be provided near the visitor center throughout the project.
•
The second phase will begin on or about March 27, 2015, and is scheduled to continue through April 30, 2015. This phase will include the Glenn-Kelly Road/Alexander Bridge Road intersection and extend to Brotherton Road, near Tour Stop 4.
•
The third phase will begin on or about May 1, 2015, and is scheduled to continue through June 11, 2015. This phase will extend from Brotherton Road, near Tour Stop 4, to the park’s southern boundary.
Please keep in mind that all roads within the park boundary will be affected by this closure. There will be access for government and emergency vehicle service at all times.
