Portion Of Stefani Road To Close Friday Morning
September 20, 2017
The closure of Stefani Road between Nine Mile Road and 9 1/2 Mile Road in Cantonment has been rescheduled. The segment will now experience closures and detours beginning Friday at 7 a.m. Construction will consist of the installation of a sanitary sewer manhole.
The roadway closure is expected to remain in effect for approximately two weeks. Every effort will be made to expedite construction efforts to reopen the road on or before Friday, October 6. If other lane or roadway closures are necessary beyond the anticipated time period, another notice will be issued.

If you like watching painting dry or grass grow, you could spend the day down at this road closure and watch the moron drivers who will ignore all the warning signs and detour notices who will drive all the way down to the big hole in the ground hoping they can find a way thru the detour. Only to be forced to either back-up or find someones driveway to complete a u-turn.
The fun really begins at dusk until the following work day, as many jeep drivers, motorcyclist, 4-wheel drive trucks will also attempt to drive thru the closure – even if it means driving thru some homeowners yard – in order to avoid having to use the detour route.
Apparently, many people dont understand “Local access only” generally means driveway access for homeowners and not “if you are a local driver you can still cut thru the work zone”.
Florida statute 316.078(2b) makes it a moving violation to drive around any barricade erected for the purpose of closing any section of a public street or highway to traffic that is under construction or repair or driving over such section of public street or highway until open to public traffic.. A law Enforcement agency could easily handout 100+ tickets each day just sitting and watching drivers enter and being forced to retreat from the work zone.
