Below are the road and lane closures happening in the city of Clearwater:

Utility Projects

  • Utility repairs will be made at Hamden Drive and S. Gulfview Boulevard at the intersection under the signal. North- and southbound inside lanes will shift to outside lanes, and westbound outside lanes will shift to the inside lane using construction barrels. Lanes will be closed from July 9 to 11.

Right-of-Way Maintenance Projects

  • Clearwater traffic crews will be re-striping Fort Harrison Avenue from Ponce De Leon Boulevard (north of Belleair Road) to McLennan Street, starting Monday, July 15, from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. The roadway will be open to northbound and southbound traffic during the project. Work is anticipated to take approximately 2 to 3 weeks, depending on weather conditions. Drivers should use caution in the area and watch for workers close to the road.
  • Partial lane closures will occur along the outside west- and eastbound lanes of Enterprise Road between village and Landmark drives, from July 9 to 12, due to tree maintenance happening along the rights-of-way. Trimming will take place in one direction at a time. Work will begin at 8 a.m. and finish at 4 p.m. daily. Please drive slowly in the area to protect our crews.

Road Construction

  • Repairs will be made to the Courtney Campbell Trail between Courtney Campbell Beach and Ben T. Davis Beach over the next several months. During this time, visitors can expect to find various sections of the trail narrowed or closed completely. Work includes asphalt work (including reconstruction and/or repaving), reconstruction and resodding, some guardrail replacements, and replacement of curb/sidewalks damaged by Hurricane Idalia.  
  • The stretch of U.S. 19 from Curlew Road south to State Road 580 in Clearwater is undergoing a major renovation by the Florida Department of Transportation. The project includes new interchanges, roadway and safety improvements, a pedestrian underpass between Evans Road and Republic Drive, and a pedestrian bridge over U.S. 19 at Northside Drive. Construction is estimated to finish in 2029. View the U.S. 19 Construction Webpage.
  • Old Coachman Road will be closed and traffic detoured along U.S. 19 starting in January 2024 through Fall 2026 due to the replacement of the Old Coachman Road Bridge. Old Coachman Road will be closed to thru traffic from Drew Street to Coachman Road. Local access to homes, BayCare Ballpark, Carpenter Complex, businesses and Northeast Coachman Park will be maintained throughout construction. Visit the Project Webpage.
