Beginning at 9pm tonight, the inside and middle lanes on North Florida Avenue will close between East Amelia Avenue and East Euclid Avenue while the Tampa Water Department conducts maintenance on the water distribution system. All lanes will reopen to traffic daily by 5am and then close again the following evening at 9pm to continue the work. Barricades and signs will be located in the area to assist with rerouting and traffic flow. Please consider alternate routes and use caution when driving in the area. Modifications to lane closures may be necessary during the course of the work.
The completion of the work with a return to normal traffic patterns is expected by 5am, Friday, June 28. 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.
