Drivers are advised of the following travel restriction:

• Monday, Aug. 31, through Friday, Sept. 4, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., Bristol Road will be closed and detoured between Buck Road and Bustleton Pike. During the closure, drivers will be directed to use Buck Road, Bridgetown Pike, and Bustleton Pike.

Local access will be maintained. Drivers are advised to allow extra time when traveling near the work area or through the detour route because backups and delays may occur.
