Beginning at 7 am on Monday, May 13, the right turn lane on SW Jefferson Avenue onto northbound N William Kumpf Boulevard will close. The right turn lane closure is necessary for median removal work and will last for two weeks, weather permitting. 

Drivers should follow all marked detours. Southwest-bound traffic on Jefferson Avenue should utilize N MacArthur Highway as the detour route.

"Beginning at 7 am on Wednesday, May 15, Liberty Street will close to through traffic at SW Adams Street. Access to the parking lots along Liberty Street between SW Adams Street and SW Washington Street will be maintained. Drivers should access these parking lots from SW Washington Street. This closure is scheduled to last two weeks, weather permitting."

Sidewalk work continues at the intersections of Harrison Street, Liberty Street, and Hamilton Boulevard along SW Adams Street. 

Sidewalks near 332 and 300 SW Adams Street, and 200 NE Adams Street remain closed. Pedestrians should continue to use caution near these closures and cross the street at the next available intersection. 

Lane and parking restrictions remain in effect along SW Adams Street. On-street parking restrictions are marked. Drivers should look for unbagged, available parking meters for on-street parking. If parking meters are bagged with “No Parking” signs, drivers should not park at those spots.

Additional parking, lane, and sidewalk restrictions will be forthcoming as the Adams Street and Jefferson Avenue One-Way to Two-Way (OWTW) Conversion Project progresses.
