Route 26 work schedule

Written on: August 25th, 2014 in Route 26

Due to scheduling conflicts and forecasts for thunderstorms, last weeks’ anticipated construction schedule and associated lane closures did not follow what was advertised by the Construction Management Team.  We apologize the unforeseen changes and for any inconvenience that this may have caused.

Travel times to and from your destination may be quicker if you use one of the Route 26 Alternate Routes that were constructed prior to the start of the SR 26 Mainline Construction Project.  The recently reconstructed roadways include:

Burbage Road, from SR 17 to Windmill Drive

• Windmill Drive to SR 26 to Central Avenue
• Central Avenue, from Windmill Drive to Beaver Dam Road
• Beaver Dam Road, from Central Avenue to Muddy Neck Road
