Hwy. 29, Hwy 97 Drivers To Get Break From Road Construction
May 28, 2010
Drivers on Highway 97 and a portion of Highway 29 near Molino will get a temporary reprieve from road construction and lane closures over the Memorial Day weekend.
To ease traffic congestion and insure safety along the roadways in northwest Florida, construction contractors working on state roads will cease operations during the Memorial Day weekend, according to Tanya Sanders Branton, public information specialist for the Florida Department of Transportation.
There will be no work on state roads requiring lane restrictions from Saturday, May 29 through Monday, May 31, she said. All major roads in northwest Florida will be open to normal traffic.
