The middle and outside eastbound lanes on West Columbus Drive are now closed between North Grady Avenue and North Dale Mabry Highway while the Tampa Water Department repairs a water main break. Barricades and signs are located in the area to assist with traffic flow. All lanes will reopen to traffic by 5pm each day and then close again the following morning at 9am to continue the work. Please use caution when driving in the area.
The completion of the work with a return to normal traffic patterns is expected by 5pm, Thursday, October 3. The Tampa Water Department may need to return at a later date to complete additional work. An update will be provided at that time. Work schedules are contingent upon weather conditions. The staff and crews of the Tampa Water Department appreciate everyone's patience during this time.
