Urgent Attention! TRAFFIC ALERT: Starting Monday, August 31st

Late this week, LC Schools received notification about the upcoming restoration project for the Louisa/Fort Gay bridge deck.
- This project is projected to last two months.
- The construction will affect traffic in the downtown area.
- Our primary concern is that morning drop-off and dismissal at Louisa East Elementary School will be significantly disrupted.

Traffic Guidelines to Follow:
- Important! Do NOT block any intersections at any time!
- Please enter at the red light on Main Cross Street or Madison Street.
- The exit route should remain normal, but please **do not line up** along Franklin Street as this will obstruct buses traveling between the West and East Elementary Schools.

The Louisa Police Department has provided a map indicating acceptable streets in yellow and
non-acceptable streets in orange where lining up is not permitted.

Please allow extra time for traffic delays and exercise patience during this construction process! #LCisHome

Head Coach Scott Johnson shared, "LC soccer is excited for Jack, Cooper, and Isaac to be included in this year’s KHSSCA preseason watchlist. We look forward to them continuing to prove themselves on the field and getting Lawrence County back in the hunt for a Region 15 championship."
