Heads up, Charlotte County commuters: your regular route may need a tweak next week. Starting Monday, and lasting through Friday, the intersection of Sunset Boulevard East and Bermont Road is getting a facelift, or more accurately, a pipe-fix beneath its surface. This means full closure from the wee hours of 9 a.m. all the way till the afternoon at 3 p.m., Charlotte County announced.
The detour signs will be hard to miss, but then again so will the delay they might add to your commute, so plan accordingly, set off early and maybe even enjoy that detour route – who knows what you'll discover on your unplanned scenic diversion, the traffic advisory didn't say the journey wouldn't be without its unexpected pleasures, after all. Local motorists, you'd do well to stay extra vigilant; roadwork zones are not to be trifled with, as suggested by the Public Works Department's gentle reminder to keep those peepers peeled and drive cautiously.
This mandatory pause in your daily drive is all in the name of a road crossing pipe repair, no minor task according to Public Works. For those seeking the granular details or perhaps looking to vent some road-closure frustration, you can hit up Ryan Prince, presumably the man with all the answers (or at least, the one tasked with fielding your queries), at [email protected].
