W Road to be closed for two weeks

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (WDEF) — The W Road will be closed for two weeks starting Monday, April 1 to complete milling, paving and safety enhancement work.

Electronic message boards are on site to notify residents of the upcoming closure.

Motorists should plan on using Roberts Mill Road or Signal Mountain Blvd./Taft Hwy to leave or access Signal Mountain during this time.

Residents that live on the W Road will have access to and from their homes. Access to Walden’s Ridge Park will be accessible from the bottom of the W Road.

Motorists should avoid this area when possible as it will be an active construction site with heavy equipment.

The Highway Department and the Town of Walden will also have a small section of James Blvd (between Anderson Pike and Taft Highway) closed starting Wednesday, March 27.

Through the duration of this work, a little for planning and caution could save a lot of aggravation during the upcoming weeks.
