STATE ROAD (S.R.) 46 WIDENING REQUIRES LANE CLOSURE AS PART OF BUILDING THE WEKIVA PARKWAY

   

Mount Dora, Fla. - Crews are scheduled at night on Wednesday, Apr. 10, through Friday, Apr. 12, to intermittently close eastbound and westbound lanes of State Road (S.R.) 46 at Currin Boulevard (Southernaire community) as part of building the Wekiva Parkway (S.R. 429). The lane closures, which will take place each night from 9 p.m. to 6:30 a.m., will allow crews to reconstruct the eastbound lanes of S.R. 46 west of U.S. 441.

Electronic message boards are in place. Flaggers will direct traffic. Please note this schedule may change due to weather or other unexpected conditions.

This activity is part of Wekiva Parkway Sections 3A & 3B, which began in October of 2017. Work is scheduled to finish in spring of 2020. This 3-mile stretch of non-tolled road improvements includes widening S.R. 46 and U.S. 441 to six lanes, sidewalks and other pedestrian improvements, and building a flyover ramp for the heavy traffic that will be trying to get to the parkway.
