The City of Collegedale and Simpson Construction Company will close Camp Road in its entirety to repair road failure beginning June 17. It is anticipated that repairs will be completed in approximately four to six weeks, weather and conditions permitting.
Construction will include the removal of an approximately 400’ section of undermined roadway, the reshaping of the existing roadside ditch, the installation of a concrete-lined ditch and the reconstruction of the road section.
While all efforts were made to delay this work as long as possible due to the existing East Brainerd Road Construction, the city was forced to implement this repair work due to deteriorating conditions creating a safety hazard for the motoring public, officials said.
During this closure, all traffic will be redirected to Apison Pike, where detour signs will be placed to guide traffic.
In the event of an emergency, contact Collegedale Police at 423-396-3133.
