• Crews will work from 7 p.m. to 6 a.m., Sunday night through Friday morning, each week.
• Two lanes of traffic in each direction will remain open during daytime hours and on weekends.
• The $31.3 million American Recovery and Reinvestment Act project is anticipated to be complete during fall 2011.
