CLARKSVILLE, TN — The Montgomery County Highway Department announces the closure of Charles Bell Road to facilitate construction efforts and improve public safety. The section of Charles Bell Road between Steel Stock Road and Archibald Road will be closed to the public beginning June 3 and is expected to remain closed for up to 90 days.
With the increased risk to public safety presented by the volume of heavy equipment required to complete construction projects along Charles Bell Road, the road will be closed during the day while the projects are being completed. The Highway Department appreciates the cooperation and understanding of all residents and commuters during this period.
Special provisions
Designated required construction vehicles, residents, couriers, and delivery traffic: permitted access during the closure times (8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.). Proper identification and proof of delivery will be required.
Emergency Services: will have access at all times.
The Highway Department urges the public to plan alternate routes and allow extra travel time to avoid inconvenience. Updates on changes to the schedule will be posted on the Montgomery County Highway Department’s web page and social media channels.
According to Highway Supervisor Jeff Bryant, “The closure of Charles Bell Road, while certainly a regrettable inconvenience, will facilitate the efficient completion of several projects while minimizing public exposure to the inherent hazards of increased construction traffic.”
