- Boyette Rd. North Bound Right/Through lane will be reduced to a right-turn only lane.
- Boyette Rd. North Bound Center Lane will become a dedicated through lane and maintained during this phase of the project.
- Boyette Rd. North Bound Left lane will remain unchanged.
Motorists traveling on Bell Shoals Rd. (Traffic Shifts) (Beginning Feb. 24)
