Heads up, commuters who travel through the Fishhawk area—roadwork is going to shake up your nighttime driving plans this week. According to a notice from Hillsborough County, utility work is scheduled to temporarily shut down eastbound lanes of Fishhawk Boulevard. Make sure to plan around this since the road is going to be closed off between Boyette Road and Mosaic Drive.
The closures are set to impact traffic today, Oct. 15; tomorrow, Oct. 16; and Monday, Oct. 20, from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. the following morning. During these times, planning to avoid the area or brace for detours might be a smart move. As for detours, drivers can use Boyette Road and Mosaic Drive to circumnavigate the work area, which should help to somewhat ease the late-night headache.
Local navigation apps have been quickly updated to reflect the changes, offering motorists the chance to quickly reroute and keep moving without too much fuss. For those of you that rely on these apps to guide you on your nightly travels, you should see the detour info seamlessly integrated into your route.
For any lingering questions or for more detailed information, drivers are directed to get in touch with Public Works Customer Service. You can reach them at (813) 635-5400 or shoot an email over to [email protected].
