Will you be doing any traveling on South Dixie Highway (US1) sometime soon? If so, you may encounter issues due to the start of a lengthy roadway project that will see several lanes intermittently closed. One of the segments of the project will extend from Riviera Drive to Ponce de Leon Boulevard in Coral Gables while the other will comprise Southwest 27th Avenue to Southwest 37th Avenue.
Per the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), the project will involve the installation of pipes and drains below the ground as well as the replacement of certain sidewalks, gutters, and sections of the curb. The project will also involve installing new roadway lighting for traffic heading both north and south, tweaking traffic signal systems, and re-pavement of the South Dixie Highway roads.
Although there are currently fewer drivers on the road due to quarantining and social distancing, construction is expected to be completed in various to reduce the chances of the work affect traffic during peak periods or events to be held in the future.
Lanes of traffic will be regularly closed throughout the night as construction work remains ongoing. During those hours, police will guide traffic, and drivers should anticipate delays. Alternative routes may be a good idea.
