Beginning at 7pm today, both eastbound lanes of West Bay to Bay Boulevard will be closed between South Concordia Avenue and South Ferdinand Avenue while the Tampa Water Department returns to complete a more permanent restoration following earlier work to repair a water main break. In addition, the inside westbound lane of West Bay to Bay Boulevard will be converted to an eastbound lane in order to maintain traffic flow in both directions. Barricades and signs will be located in the area to assist with traffic flow. Please 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 5am, Friday, March 8. 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.
