🛣️ What's Happening: The city will close 1st Avenue between 9th and 10th Streets from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday August 4 through Friday August 8, according to Columbus officials. The northbound lanes will stay closed even outside those hours as part of the ongoing Judicial Center construction.

A section of 1st Avenue in downtown Columbus will shut down for five days next week as crews disassemble construction equipment at the Judicial Center project.

🚧 Why It Matters: The closure will force drivers to find alternate routes through downtown during morning and evening rush hours, potentially adding time to commutes for anyone traveling between the Government Center area and the Chattahoochee River.
