MATLACHA, Fla. – Beginning at 1:00 a.m. on Wednesday, November 12, construction crews will be on-site to pour over 300 yards of concrete for the bridge deck slab. The concrete is expected to take approximately five hours to complete.

During this operation, traffic may be heavier due to the presence of concrete trucks. In addition, there may also be increased noise and additional lighting to allow crews to safely and effectively complete the work.

Motorists are asked to exercise caution and reduce their speed while driving through the work zone.

Please note that construction schedules are subject to change due to weather or unforeseen circumstances.
