Traffic on Samples Road will be restricted to one lane on the bridge over Hurricane Creek, according to a statement from the Saline County Judge’s Office. The Saline County Road Department made the temporary change after a routine bridge inspection on Tuesday, November 22nd.
The bridge is near New Life Baptist Church. Crews installed a temporary traffic control device to help traffic navigate the area. Motorists should exercise caution and obey traffic signs.
The bridge remains safe for normally rated vehicles. The lane restriction is being taken as a precaution. Further updates will be provided as the situation develops.
