INDIAN ROCKS ROAD CLOSURE
As of Tuesday, May 28, Indian Rocks Road was closed at the intersection of Wilcox Road. This closure will continue for 17 days while the City of Largo replaces a sanitary sewer line across the intersection from Siesta Road to Wilcox Road. The City will then continue south replacing sanitary sewer, while Pinellas County's contractor begins replacing the stormwater structures and piping that cross from north to south at Wilcox Road. Once this work is complete, a temporary patch of asphalt will be placed along with striping until all pipework is completed. Visit Largo.com/RoadClosure for detour routes and more information.
