Tampa, FL – Crews are conducting preconstruction activities on the Selmon Extension
Beginning Sunday, January 21, 2018 through Friday, January 26, 2018 short intermittent lane closures may occur along Eastbound and Westbound Gandy Boulevard to allow contractors to complete geotechnical boring in the area. There will be minor traffic disruptions for motorists and noise will be kept to a minimum.
Construction activities that will not impact traffic include relocating utility poles, the removal of roots and stumps, excavation and erosion control to prepare for the construction and maintenance of the highway and for the safety of the traveling public.
Please be reminded that both the Gandy Park South on the Southside of Gandy Boulevard and the Al Palonis Park on the north side of Gandy Boulevard are closed for the duration of the Selmon Extension construction. The Gandy Boat ramp will remain open. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Please watch out for sudden stops, merging traffic and work zone operations. For more information, call 813.613.2306 or email [email protected]
