Road Closure of Towne Center Way
Construction of improvements in the vicinity of Wolfangel Road, Bowen Avenue, Towne Center Way and Beechmont Avenue will trigger the closure of Towne Center Way, north of Bowen, beginning as early as next Tuesday, May 31st. Access to the Anderson Towne Center, and the Crotty Court area, from Wolfangel, will remain open at this time. However, traffic will need to enter from Five Mile Road to reach the Towne Center parking area behind Kroger, as well as Anderson Center and Anderson Center Station.
Towne Center Way will likely remain closed until it is connected to the end of Bowen Avenue later this year, at which point the roadway will be renamed Towne Center Way east to Wolfangel Road. Additional improvements that are part of this summer’s project include the following, and are denoted on the attached image.
- Widening of Wolfangel Road from Bowen Avenue to Beechmont to add a center turn lane, with a new traffic signal at the Bowen/Wolfangel intersection, including left turn lanes on Wolfangel
- Construction of sidewalks on both sides of Wolfangel from Bowen to Beechmont, with bus pull off on east side of Wolfangel, north of Valvoline
- Installation of new right turn lane from Southbound Wolfangel to Westbound Beechmont
- Installation of new right turn lane from westbound Beechmont into Kroger’s driveway (formerly Towne Center Way)
