Construction to widen Highway 67 to six lanes between Main Street and Vandenberg Boulevard in Jacksonville requires new a traffic pattern on John Harden Drive southbound between Quince Hill Road and N. 1^st Street.

The new traffic pattern will start Wednesday, April 10 and remain in place through Friday, May 31.

Weather permitting, crews will detour John Harden Drive southbound traffic to Quince Hill Road and N. 1^st Street to allow pavement operations along the frontage road. Traffic will follow the signed detour. See detour map NR 24-111-A for more information.

John Harden Drive northbound will be open to traffic. Access will remain open to businesses along this stretch of John Harden Drive, although some temporary alternate entrances may be utilized during this construction stage.  

Traffic will be controlled with traffic drums, barricades, and signage. The public is advised to be cautious when traveling in the work zone and watch for slower traffic speeds. Areas adjacent to the Interstate may experience noise impacts during nighttime hours.
