<div class="content"><span style="padding-left: 50px;">(COLUMBIA, MO)</span> - <p style="display:inline;">Construction of the new gravity sewer line along Elm Street is progressing quicker than originally expected. Crews will begin work on the intersection of Fifth Street and Elm Street on Thursday, May 18 and anticipate closure of Elm Street between the intersections of Sixth and Eighth beginning Tuesday, May 23. Both work areas will have traffic detours, though Sixth and Eighth will remain open to North/South traffic during this time. Please keep an eye out for updates on this project as road closures will be adjusted as the work progresses along Elm Street and up Sixth Street. </p>
<p>Motorists, nonmotorized transportation users and pedestrians should use caution in and around the work area. Check COMO Connect for specific changes to 10 Red Line route and schedule over the next couple weeks. <a href="https://twitter.com/COMOConnect">https://twitter.com/COMOConnect</a></p>
