PONCHATOULA—A portion of North Hoover Road will be closed to thru traffic for several hours a day through Wednesday, Nov. 27, to continue preliminary work for the road widening project.
Tangipahoa Parish President Robby Miller said contractors will be working from 8 a.m. until 2 p.m. each day in the eastern right-of-way of North Hoover Road, where crews are removing large trees and stumps. The contractor will be using a large piece of equipment, which will require the roadway to be closed for the safety of our traveling public.
The closure area south of Sisters Road and continuing to LA 22. Flaggers will be stationed to direct residents who live on North Hoover to the best route to reach their homes during the closure hours. No other traffic will be allowed on the roadway during the closures hours.
This work is the first step toward a widening of the roadway, which is planned next year, Miller said.
In addition to this work on North Hoover Road, contractors will be performing surface treatment operations on Tracey Lane, Acadiana Place, and Steptoe Road during the week of Nov. 25. Motorists are encouraged to use alternate routes while surface treatment work is being performed.
