As part of the on-going Troost Bridge replacement project, there are two significant street closures that are planned for September.  Volker Boulevard at the Troost Avenue intersection will close on September 7th for 10 days and then re-open with two lanes for approximately one year.  The second will be a full closure of the Troost Bridge for 11 months.  On September 2, the city announced that the bridge would also be closed beginning September 7th.
