Some residents will have to adjust their commutes for the next few weeks as sewer work is expected to close three roads in southeast Atlanta.

Work will begin 8 a.m. Monday on the roads and is expected to last three weeks, the Atlanta Department of Watershed announced in a news release.

Crews will replace a portion of a sewer line between Northern Street and Hosea L. Williams Drive on Third Avenue, according to the release. A sewer line will also be replaced between Second Avenue and Fourth Avenue along Hosea L. Williams Drive. A road closure will be in place from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily.

Crews will also work on sewer repairs on East Lake Drive at the Tupelo Street and Roseclair Drive intersections, the department announced. That road closure will last from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily.

The city is also extending sewer work on Ralph McGill Boulevard between Boulevard and Glen Iris Drive in northeast Atlanta, watershed officials said. The road will close from 9 a.m. to  4 p.m. daily.

Sewer work is expected to last another month.
