On Monday, road demolition and reconstruction related to a new 7-11 gas and convenience store will close a short part of North Chestnut Road just south of Memorial Boulevard in Lakeland. Traffic will be unable to turn from Memorial Boulevard onto North Chestnut Road, and depending on direction of travel, motorists will be briefly detoured onto West Parker Street or North Wabash Avenue. This closure is expected to take about four weeks.
On Tuesday, a county drainage-improvement project will close a portion of Tillery Road from Clubhouse Road to Valley High Drive, shutting off a common quick access route to and from Clubhouse Road for a large portion of neighborhoods to the south. Traffic will detour along Peterson and Harrels Nursry Road. Construction, which involves deep excavations to install pipes and other structures, is expected to take about a month.
