Heads up, Litchfield Park commuters: a notable road closure is on the horizon for Desert Avenue. Scheduled for September 10th, the stretch of road between Wigwam and Honeysuckle will be shut down from the wee hours of 5:00 A.M. until the afternoon at 3:00 P.M. This temporary inconvenience is to lay down the final lift of pavement, a crucial step to round off ongoing road work.
While this might put a wrinkle in the daily to-and-fro of residents, the city has outlined detours to mitigate the disruption. Access to City Hall and nearby restaurant parking lots on Desert Avenue is not getting cut off during this day. Moreover, for those who utilize Honeysuckle, the city affirms in an announcement on its official website that it will be completely open.
It's worth noting that planning could save you from headaches come closure day. Check out alternative routes in advance and plan to give yourself some extra travel time to accommodate the change in traffic patterns. And if you're a frequent patron of the area's eateries or need to pay a visit to City Hall, rest assured there won't be any disruption there.
