Sanford, Fla. – Crews are scheduled from 8 p.m. on Sunday night, Aug. 18, to 6 a.m. on Monday, Aug. 19, to shift eastbound State Road (S.R.) 46 traffic onto temporary pavement between Orange Boulevard and Wayside Drive/Oregon Street. The eastbound lanes will shift into the median area to allow widening of the south side of the roadway.

This work is part of Wekiva Parkway Section 7B, which began construction on July 15, 2019. The project includes 1.3 miles of improvements to S.R. 46 in Seminole County, including roadway widening, medians, sidewalk, bike lanes, traffic signal upgrades, drainage, sign and pavement markings, utilities and other roadway features. Work is scheduled to finish in summer of 2021.
