31st St., east of Louisiana St., will be closed starting on Thursday evening.

One of southern Lawrence’s main thoroughfares will be partly closed this week for maintenance.

Starting at 7 p.m. Thursday, 31st Street, east of Louisiana Street, will be closed for a bridge maintenance project, weather permitting. The project is expected to conclude on Saturday.

Douglas County Public Works is overseeing the contracted project to apply an epoxy wearing surface to the bridge deck, enhancing concrete protection.
