Get ready to detour around Main Street in Hiram in the coming days as the city prepares for a road closure as men get working on the railroad, all the live long day.

The City of Hiram announced this morning that a road closure is coming up on Tuesday, January 20 as part of a need to make repairs at crossings on Main Street.

The temporary closure will take around 24 hours on Jan. 20, and require a detour for those who utilize the area regularly to get to and from their destinations.

“Motorists are encouraged to plan alternate routes and allow extra travel time. We appreciate your patience and cooperation as this necessary maintenance is completed to ensure safety,” the city added to their announcement this morning.

Drivers who need to detour around should use Rosedale Road to get back to Angham Road or Arnold Road from Metromont, or stay on SR 92 through downtown Hiram and turn back at Bill Carruth Parkway to Arnold Road.
