Starting tomorrow morning, July 12, a construction crew will commence the final excavation. Due to the depth of the excavation, the middle travel lanes in both directions will be closed beginning at 9 a.m. Proper signage will be in place to inform drivers of the lane closures.

JEA has coordinated with the Florida Department of Transportation regarding the lane closures. The repair crews will work safely and efficiently to complete the repairs and reopen all lanes of San Jose Boulevard as soon as possible.
