Old Lifsey Springs Road closed

A section of Old Lifsey Springs Road has been closed between Deer Trail and Millwood Road. An entire lane in that area of the road has been washed away due to flooding from recent heavy rains. Public Works Director Todd Goolsby said the culvert going under road deteriorated over time and all water going through it undermined the pavement.”There are several residences in that area, but we have closed it off where they will have access from each side,” Goolsby said. “We’re going to have to take that pipe out and replace it. Once we get approval on how we are going to fund it, it will probably take about two weeks. We are in the process now of seeing if state aid is available.”
