BRADENTON, Fla. – Manatee County utility crews have temporarily closed two northbound lanes of U.S. 41/14th Street West just north of 5427 14th Street West to investigate the location of utilities and then perform relocation as needed per Florida statute. The work is being conducted prior to a future Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) safety project.

Two lanes will be temporarily closed until December 19 as crews complete the work. The IHOP Restaurant is open during this time, and patrons can enter and exit as usual.

Travelers in this area may want to allow for additional travel time.
