Parsley Boulevard bridge over I-80 to be repaired; traffic restriction will be in effect

CHEYENNE, Wyo. – Work to repair the Parsley Boulevard bridge over Interstate 80 will begin Monday, Sept. 16, and will result in traffic restrictions and lane closures during the project.

Parsley Boulevard will be closed to northbound traffic beginning mid-next week (on or around Sept. 18) and will continue to be closed into the following week. A detour will be in place.

Southbound Parsley Boulevard traffic will be able to continue using the bridge.

On I-80, lane closures will be in effect in the westbound lanes for the duration of the project. Eastbound I-80 will be unaffected.

The bridge was struck by a commercial vehicle in the last year, necessitating the repairs.

All work is expected to be complete on or around Thursday, Sept. 26, weather permitting.

Reiman Corp. is the contractor for the project.
