Effective immediately, 31^st Avenue between 17^th and 24^th Streets will be closed to east bound traffic for a water main repair.  The road closure is necessary for the safety of the crews performing the repair as well as the motoring public. 

Motorists are encouraged to use 25^th Avenue as an alternate route through the duration of the repair.

Travel delays can be expected at or near this location.  Please follow all posted signs for detour directions when needed and watch for trucks entering and leaving the area.

Completion of this work is anticipated to be later tonight.

The City of Rock Island is sorry for any inconvenience due to this work and appreciates the patience and consideration of the traveling public.
