No Lane Closures on the Selmon Expressway This Week – Pressure Washing Suspended For a Week

Tampa, October 30, 2016 – NO LANE CLOSURES THIS WEEK – Pressure washing of the upper deck of the Selmon Expressway has been suspended for a week. There will be no lane closures until pressure washing resumes on November 7, 2016.

Temporary Lane Closures along Brorein Street for Roadway and Infrastructure Improvements – A portion of the Brorein Street intersection at Morgan Street will be closed beginning on Thursday, October 27, 2016, at 9 a.m. as part of the roadway and infrastructure improvements to support area development.

The two northernmost lanes on Brorein Street at the Lee Roy Selmon Expressway Morgan Street exit ramp will be closed until appropriately 4 p.m. on November 2, 2016, weather permitting.

The westbound Lee Roy Selmon Expressway (Exit 7) ramp to Morgan Street / Brorein Street will be partially closed. Traffic exiting the Morgan Street (Exit 7) from westbound Selmon Expressway will not be able to continue straight (westbound) on Brorein Street. However, the northbound Morgan Street exit lane will remain open to traffic during this phase of the construction.

The City of Tampa recommends that westbound motorists use Kennedy Boulevard from Meridian Street and from the Lee Roy Selmon Expressway (Exit 8) in lieu of Brorein Street to travel westbound through downtown.

Additional lane closures in the area along Channelside Drive will remain in effect through summer 2017.
