The drama surrounding Western Avenue never ends.

Starting Friday at 9 a.m., eastbound drivers near the intersection of Western Avenue and Senator Way (the former Storey Street) will be restricted to one lane until further notice for the rest of the day.

The lane will closed so the contractor, Alvin J. Coleman & Son Inc., can commence paving work in the intersection.

Until then, streets in Augusta and the surrounding communities should be free and clear for a peaceful commute home from work or school.

Graveyard shifting it? Expect chance showers into the evening and patchy fog.
