Lane Closure on North Florida Avenue between East Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd and East Idea Street

Posted Date

Beginning at 9 am today, the northbound lane of North Florida Avenue between East Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd and East Ida Street will be closed as the Tampa Water Department works to repair a water main break. Barricades and signs will be located in the area to assist with traffic flow. Please consider alternate routes and use caution when driving in the area. Modifications may be necessary during the course of the work.

The completion of the work with a return to normal traffic patterns is expected by 5 pm, Thursday, July 25. 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.
