The detour route will be U.S. 6 east to Miller Road, south to Walker Road, east to Moore Road, north to U.S. 6 and reversed.
Avon Lake Environmental Redevelopment Group officials confirmed they will implode the boiler building. Then, they plan to take down the smoke stack and precipitator at a later date.
Crews will use controlled explosives to carry out this plan.
The Avon Lake Power Plant closed back in 2022.
