Beginning at 9 am today, the southbound lane of Columbia Drive will be closed between Arbor Place and Davis Boulevard while the Tampa Water Department repairs a water main break. Barricades and flaggers will be located in the area to assist with rerouting and traffic flow. All lanes will reopen to traffic this weekend. Starting Monday, August 12, lanes will also reopen each day at 5 pm and close again at 9 am the following morning until work is complete. Please use caution when driving in the area.
The completion of the work with a return to normal traffic patterns is expected by 5 pm, Tuesday, August 13. Work schedules are contingent upon weather conditions. The staff and crews of the Tampa Water Department appreciate everyone's patience during this time.
