Drivers can expect nightly lane closures on Seminole Boulevard starting Sunday, March 14 through Friday, March 26. Lane closures will be from 8pm-6am, Sunday through Thursday. Northbound lanes will close first, followed by the median and southbound lanes. The closures will occur to install a new 16-inch sewer pipe to support businesses and residents in the area. Steel plates will be in place until final paving is complete. Patrons are asked to drive with caution to protect work crews in the construction zone.

Starting March 29, construction on Rosery Road from Missouri Avenue to the Walmart truck entrance is expected, pending FDOT permitting. Improvements include mill and resurface of the pavement, median reconstruction, and curb reconstruction. Construction is expected to last 4-6 months. Message boards for the expected closure and detours will be posted on Monday, March 15.
