The Pineville Police Department is advising motorists to expect heavier traffic near the intersection of Claiborne Street and Military Highway over the next several weeks due to roadwork in the area.

Officials said the construction is expected to impact traffic flow, particularly during peak travel times at the beginning and end of the school day.

Drivers are encouraged to plan ahead and consider alternate routes if possible to avoid delays during their morning and afternoon commutes.

Police also urged parents to share the advisory with student drivers who may travel through the area, reminding motorists to allow extra travel time while work is underway.

Authorities said planning ahead can help reduce congestion and improve safety for drivers traveling through the construction zone.
