Town of Clifton Forge Police Department issued the following announcement on May. 27.
Beginning May 24, 2021 thru at least Friday, June 4th, Route 60 (1600 block of Main Street) in front of BB & T bank will be closed through traffic. While this closure was only projected to close the road for a few days, the discovery of several sinkholes that have undermined the roadway have resulted in a longer projected closure.
The closure will impact all westbound and eastbound through traffic on Route 60 in front of BB&T bank between Hickory Street and the entrance to Mountain View Apartments.
Through traffic is advised to avoid this area during the closure period as there will be significant impacts to all roadway users. Local traffic is advised to use alternative routes until project work is completed. All truck traffic must detour by way of Verge Street. Detour signs are in place to alert motorists, pedestrians, and bicyclists about the temporary road closure.
The Town of Clifton Forge understands the challenges and inconveniences that commuters, residents, businesses, bicyclists, and pedestrians will experience during the closure period and asks for patience and cooperation as we work to complete this project.
