Overnight southwest Columbia road closure rescheduled to later this week

COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

A southwest Columbia road closure that was originally scheduled for Tuesday has been scheduled for Thursday night, according to a Monday press release from the city.

The release says the closure of South Sinclair Road between West Southampton Drive and Murifield Drive was scheduled to 7 p.m. Thursday because of a scheduling conflict. The road is expected to be reopened by 7 a.m. Friday.

Sewer pipes will be installed under South Sinclair Road “as part of a private development project that includes construction of a roundabout,” the release says.

During the closure, northbound traffic on Sinclair will be detoured through Murifield Drive, while southbound traffic will stay open to West Southampton Drive, the release says. Barricades and electronic message boards will be placed.
