River Road Closure, Culvert Repairs to Begin Oct. 17

Published Oct 2, 2023

River Road will experience a road closure with detours beginning Tuesday, Oct. 17. During this time, construction crews will install a new box culvert under the roadway. The closure will extend 175 feet in both directions from the creek adjacent to 14620 River Road. The road is expected to re-open by January 2024, with work expected to be completed by February 2024.

During this time, two-lane traffic will be maintained on either side of the closure while all through traffic will be required to use Perdido Key Drive. Pedestrian access will be maintained through the work zone and closure for the duration of the work period.

Residents, pedestrians, local traffic and emergency vehicles will have access to properties within the work area at all times; however, there may be short periods when a driveway or entrance may be blocked temporarily as equipment and materials are moved during construction.

If other roadway closures are necessary or work is delayed, another notice will be issued.

A formal Maintenance of Traffic Plan was submitted to and approved by the Escambia County Construction Management Division on Oct. 2, 2023. Jack Hooper, the contractor's representative, was responsible for the submittal of the approved MOT Plan and has a valid certificate for Advanced MOT training.
