Kent State residents and students can expect delays on East Summit Street due to asphalt repairs, according to a City of Kent press release.

Expect traffic delays between Loop Road and state Route 261 are until Friday from 7 a.m. to approximately 5 p.m.

East Summit Street will be closed Saturday from 7 a.m. to approximately 5 p.m.

Motorists are asked to avoid the repair area and leave ample time to get to their destination, but normal traffic patterns will be maintained for most of the work, according to a memo from engineering technician Patrick Hoffman.
