The southbound parkway will be open.  The northbound closure extension is necessary to continue working on the installation of soldier piles adjacent to the northbound travel lanes related to the Crane Road Bridge Replacement Project on the parkway. 

Motorists are advised to seek alternate routes.  Numerous variable message signs are being used to alert motorists of the closures.   The project began last summer and will take three years to complete.
