LUFKIN - Motorists will see a closure on US 59 in Nacogdoches Tuesday as contractors work to repair the bridge approach slab on US 59 over FM 225.

 

Bridge crews will close a small part of US 59 on Tuesday in the northbound lanes. Traffic will be detoured to the FM 225 exit ramp and then redirected back to US 59. The closure on Tuesday will last about eight hours.

 

Motorists are asked to stay alert as traffic is funneled to one lane before exiting US 59 onto the FM 225 exit ramp. Delays should be expected and drivers are urged to reduce speed as they enter the work zone. Be alert to moving traffic control, equipment, workers and flaggers through the area.
