Significant traffic delays expected on US 27 S near the Chestnut St. intersection on 5/1 and 5/2. 
Work to widen and perform other improvements to U.S. 27 in the city of Oxford is expected to begin this week.
This two-year project involves widening and resurfacing 1.05 miles of U.S. 27 between Southpointe Road and Chestnut Street; work will include adding turn lanes and upgrading traffic signals. This week, work will require a lane closure on U.S. 27 near its intersection with Chestnut Street on Thursday, May 1 and Friday, May 2 beginning at 7:30 a.m. Traffic will be maintained with a flagging operation. Traffic delays may be significant.
To help ensure the safety of the construction workers as well as the traveling public, motorists should remain alert, reduce their speed and watch for stopped traffic while passing through the work zone.
