Neptune Road at State Road (S.R.) 500/U.S. 192 was recently closed as of 5 a.m. Thursday, May 4. The closure will last for approximately four weeks.

A detour will be in effect; U.S. 192 traffic needing to access Neptune Road will be directed to Old Canoe Creek Road (see map below). The contractor, Jr. Davis Construction Company, will be performing pipe work. Electronic message boards have been installed to inform motorists about the road closure and detour signs will direct traffic.

The work is part of a Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) project to widen S.R. 500 (U.S. 192) from Aeronautical Drive to Budinger Avenue. Please note construction schedules may change due to weather or other unforeseen circumstances.

Schedule updates are available at the FDOT Central Florida website, www.cflroads.com.
