SOUTH CHARLESTON, W.Va. (WSAZ) – We have a traffic alert for drivers who use the Kanawha Turnpike in South Charleston where the eastbound lanes of that roadway are closed.

This is in the area of Country Club Village Road, according to Metro 911.

The West Virginia Department of Transportation said those in the area will not be able to access the roundabout.

WVDOT officials said drivers who need to access Corridor G or Charleston from the Kanawha Turnpike will have to detour to MacCorkle Avenue through Chestnut Street or Chesapeake Street.

West Virginia 511 reported that the closure is in place so crews can repair a hole which was found during a bridge inspection.
