Haskell Ave. partially closed for repaving

Motorists should plan on avoiding major portions of Haskell Avenue this weekend.

Crews will be repaving Haskell from 23rd Street to 31st Street, which will cause the road to be closed to traffic in both directions. Work is scheduled to start at 6 a.m. today and run into the evening. Work also may need to continue into Sunday.

Work will begin at 31st Street and move north. As work is completed, Haskell Avenue will open in sections.

The road should be fully open by Monday, city officials said.
