The City of Oxford said in a Facebook post that drivers should be aware of a traffic pattern change at the intersection of North Lamar and Molly Barr and watch for detour signs before they reach the intersection.
The City of Oxford is the municipal government responsible for local roads, public safety and traffic management for residents and businesses in the area. Traffic pattern changes are typically used to manage construction, maintenance or safety concerns and can affect travel times and routes for commuters, school buses and emergency vehicles.
City officials urged motorists to follow posted detour signs and exercise caution while driving through the area. Observing posted directions helps crews complete work safely and reduces the risk of collisions or delays for other drivers.
Details about the duration and specific reasons for the change were not provided in the post. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
