Dade City, FL — A section of Old Lakeland Highway (Alternate Pasco County Road 35) will be closed to all traffic under the US 98 overpass during daytime hours on Thursday, May 7, and Friday, May 8, according to transportation officials.
The closure is scheduled from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day, weather permitting, to allow crews to perform beam setting and bridge work over the roadway.
During the closure, motorists will be detoured using US 98, US 301, Clinton Avenue, and Old Lakeland Highway. Drivers are encouraged to use alternate routes or allow additional travel time due to expected delays through the detour area.
The temporary roadway closure is part of the ongoing $147 million project to widen and realign US 98 from the Polk County line to US 301.
