The City of Bellefontaine has announced a temporary street and parking lot closure beginning next week due to a storm sewer collapse.

Starting at 6:00 a.m. on Monday, City Parking Lot #4 and Canby Street—specifically the north/south alley between West Sandusky Avenue and West Columbus Avenue, and between North Detroit Street and North Main Street—will be closed to traffic.

The closure is expected to last through 4:00 p.m. on Friday, August 8, as crews from Levan’s Excavating complete the necessary repair work.

City officials are encouraging residents and visitors to plan ahead and use alternate routes during the closure.

Updates will be provided if the timeline changes.
