CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A section of Central Avenue will be closed through Friday, July 15, while Charlotte Water repairs a damaged wastewater pipe.
Charlotte Water crews were called to the area near Moo & Brew and the Thirsty Beaver Saloon around 7 p.m. on Friday, July 8. Workers determined a wastewater pipe would need to be replaced so the road was closed for construction.
Central Avenue will remain closed from The Plaza to Hawthorne Lane for repairs. Drivers will be detoured onto Parkwood Lane to get around the closure.
The following detours have been set up for businesses and residents while the road is closed:
- Outbound Drivers will turn left onto Hawthorne Lane, Right on Parkwood Avenue, and Right onto The Plaza.
- Inbound Drivers will turn right onto The Plaza, left onto Parkwood Avenue, and Left onto Hawthorne Lane.
Crews are expected to reopen lanes when possible.
