Beginning this evening, July 30, "N" Street will close between South Cotner Boulevard and the southwest driveway of the strip mall between 56th and Cotner. Drivers can still reach businesses in the mall from South 56th Street, which is open south of "N."

56th Street between "N" and "P" streets will re-open about 6:30 p.m. Friday evening, August 2. This will allow access to the "N" Street entrance of the strip mall from both directions on 56th Street.

Once 56th Street is open, South Cotner Boulevard will close completely between "O" and "N" streets and will be open to local traffic only between Randolph Street and the business driveway opposite "N" Street.

The latest information on the construction project can be found on the 24-Hour East "O" Street Information Line, 441-432, and on the city website.
