If you’re planning to navigate through Forrest Nelson Boulevard between Quesada Avenue and U.S. 41 this week, you might want to budget extra time for your commute. According to Charlotte County's recent traffic advisory, Lumos will be installing underground fiber, which will result in intermittent lane closures from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m., starting next Tuesday continuing through next Thursday.

The Public Works Department is urging travelers to keep an eye out for any sudden changes and maintain a vigilant presence when driving close to these construction zones. During these times, when workers will be actively working to enhance communication infrastructure, traffic interruptions are expected.

For those who wish to know more about the traffic implications or have any concerns regarding the construction, Basilio Frias of Lumos has been designated as the point of contact. Frias can be reached at 239-710-2258, should any motorists have inquiries or need further clarification regarding the impact of the work being done.
