Two inside lanes on Oak Ridge Turnpike could be briefly closed early this weekend to repair a leak on a city-owned water line.
The Oak Ridge Public Works Department could close the two inside lanes of Oak Ridge Turnpike where it intersects Administration Road and Tyler Road, a press release said.  The city staff plans to start the work at about 12 a.m. Friday, June 5.
Vehicles entering Oak Ridge Turnpike from either Administration or Tyler will be restricted to right turns only, the press release said. Talmeda Road to Central Avenue or Milan Way to Bus Terminal Road may be used as a detour. The work is expected to take eight to 12 hours, but it may be delayed in the event of bad weather.
