Sidewalk construction will shift from the north side to the south side of West Bay Drive beginning with the new year
. The David Nelson Construction Company expects the shift to begin Monday, January 6, 2020, barring the unexpected. By contract schedule, the outside eastbound lane will experience sustained closure for five months, to May 2020. Although sidewalk construction on the north side will take less than two and a half months to complete, motorists should conservatively assume sidewalk construction on the south side of West Bay Drive will be for the contract length of five months. Motorists from points west such as Indian Rocks Road and the beach communities will experience delays traveling eastbound. Consider alternate routes such as 8
th
Avenue SW or Ulmerton Road (see www.largo.com/westbaydrive) or plan for a longer commute time.
