The state Highway Department will close Burks Branch Road to accommodate construction on the Shelbyville bypass from April 14 to July 31.
The road will be open to local traffic for most of that period. But at some point, the road will be shut down completely, said county Road Supervisor Carl Henry.
"There's going to be a point that not even fire trucks can get through," Henry said.
Drivers will have to use Fox Run Road to access the north end of Burks Branch.
