Drivers are alerted to a weekend road closure of Reed Canal Road approaching U.S. 1/South Ridgewood Avenue in South Daytona. Reed Canal Road will be closed between Carmen Drive and U.S. 1 from about 9 p.m. Friday, May 18, through 6 a.m. Monday, May 21, to allow crews to replace a storm pipe under the road.
Residents and visitors of the Bristol Bay Condominiums will be able to access the Banana Cay Drive entrance coming east on Reed Canal Road from Carmen Drive.
During the closure, the posted detour will use Carmen Drive, Ridge Boulevard and U.S. 1. A map is attached for more information.
The drainage work is part of a Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) intersection improvement project at the U.S. 1 intersection with Reed Canal Road. The work includes widening and lengthening the left turn lane from southbound U.S. 1 to Sandy Circle and adding a right turn lane from southbound U.S. 1 to westbound Reed Canal Road. There also will be dedicated turn lanes created from Reed Canal Road into Bristol Bay Condominiums, as well as a new left turn lane from Reed Canal Road to northbound U.S. 1.
Electronic message boards and other signage will be used to direct motorists. Please note schedules may change. Construction updates are available on FDOT’s Central Florida website, cflroads.com. Media inquiries should be directed to the District Five Public Information Office at 386-943-5479 or [email protected].
