Grandview officials have announced a road closure at the intersection of 36th and Grandview Drive, effective through September 12. This closure is designed to improve traffic flow and safety around the newly planned roundabout. Local authorities encourage residents and commuters to utilize alternate routes during the construction period. The project aims to address congestion issues that have impacted the area for years, particularly during peak travel times. Once completed, the roundabout is expected to significantly enhance traffic management.

This initiative is part of Grandview's broader commitment to upgrading its infrastructure and environmental services. The city has allocated funds from the budget to support this project, reflecting its importance to local development. Community feedback will be sought to assess the impact of the changes on traffic patterns.
