Local motorists are advised to avoid the corner of Hilliard Ave and S. French Broad Avenue in downtown Asheville between Monday, March 6, and Friday, March 17.
The right turn lane on Hilliard Ave and 6 parking spots along S. French Broad will be closed during repair and reconstruction work on the deteriorating retaining wall on that corner. Kestrel Construction will manage this project.
