This week workers will continue installing new water mains along the east side of Lakeland Hills Boulevard during the day. Additionally, nighttime utility crews will be working on installing new 12” water main crossings under the Lakeland Hills Boulevard travel lanes utilizing lane closures with flagging operations. Concrete crews are pouring curb & gutter and driveways along the east side of Lakeland Hills Blvd.
- Expect nighttime/overnight lane closures with flaggers directing traffic on Lakeland Hills Boulevard through 6:30 a.m. nightly. Use caution and be prepared to stop.
- Gilmore Avenue remains closed from Parkview Place to Julius T. Horney Drive through late January. The closure is necessary as crews install curb along Gilmore Avenue. Follow posted detour signs to navigate around the closure.
- Watch for side street closures along the east side of Lakeland Hills Boulevard as crews work to install new storm drains and water lines. Any side street closures will utilize the adjacent side streets to route traffic east towards Gilmore Avenue to the respective closed street.
- Traffic will remain in one lane in each direction for most of the duration of construction. Use caution, be prepared to merge or stop, and plan for delays.
- The speed limit has been reduced to 35 mph during construction.
