PADUCAH — South Fifth Street in Paducah will be closed to traffic Monday until 4:30 p.m., between Washington and Clark streets, in front of City Hall.
According to a news release from the city of Paducah, the closure will allow crews to "paint a commemorative veterans crosswalk connecting City Hall to Dolly McNutt Memorial Plaza."
The crosswalk will feature the colors red, white, and blue along with the words "Gone But Not Forgotten" and an image of a kneeling soldier, according to a release.
Surface Construction will complete the crosswalk painting project. The city says the roadway will reopen Monday evening. Drivers are advised to use caution, watch for work crews and respect traffic control devices.
Paducah leaders say members of the public visiting City Hall during the closure can find streetside parking on Washington and Clark streets. A public parking lot is located on Clark Street adjacent to City Hall.
