    Lane closures approaching and through intersection in all directions: Wednesday, May 1 and Thursday, May 2 nights from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m.

  • SR 54  to be Closed at US 41 Intersection at Night

    Lutz / Land O' Lakes – Portions of the intersection of US 41 and SR 54 will be closed for milling and paving work from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. Wednesday, May 1, Thursday, May 2, Sunday, May 5, and Monday, May 6 nights, weather permitting.

    The operations are planned for one direction at a time to keep at least one lane open on US 41 in each direction, but there may be brief periods when US 41 traffic will be directed to detour to U-Turns on SR 54. All SR 54 traffic will be unable to cross US 41 and will be detoured to right turns at the intersection. Lane closures will be in place in all directions leading into the intersection and no left turns will be permitted at the intersection. Drivers who planned to make left turns at the intersection will need to use two of the detour routes listed below. Drivers are advised to plan extra travel time to travel through the area or choose alternate routes.     Detour Map

    Detour routes

    1) Northbound US 41: Traffic will be reduced from three lanes to one lane and detoured to eastbound SR 54, U-Turn at Raden Drive, then go west and turn right to continue north on US 41. Traffic planning to go west on SR 54 will then need to use detour 4.

    2) Southbound US 41: Traffic will be reduced from three lanes to one lane and detoured to westbound SR 54, U-Turn at Sophia Drive, then go east and turn right to continue south on US 41. Traffic planning to go east on SR 54 will then need to use detour 3.

    3) Eastbound SR 54: Traffic will be reduced from three lanes to one lane and detoured to southbound US 41, U-Turn at Lake Floyd Drive, then go north and turn right to continue east on SR 54. Traffic planning to go north on US 41 will then need to use detour 1.

    4) Westbound SR 54: Traffic will be reduced from three lanes to one lane and detoured to northbound US 41, U-Turn at Morgan Road, then go south and turn right to continue west on SR 54. Traffic planning to go south on US 41 will then need to use detour 2.
