The westbound lanes of the Bluffton Parkway flyover are scheduled to close Monday between 7 a.m. and 3 p.m.

The temporary closure will allow crews to perform clean-up work on the site, according to a news release from construction contractor R.R. Dawson Bridge Co.

Drivers traveling in the area are asked to reduce speed and be aware of crews and equipment, the release said.
