TAMPA, FL.- Starting at 9 am today, all southbound lanes on North Himes Ave will be closed between West Spruce St and W Walnut St while the Tampa Water Department returns to complete a more permanent restoration following earlier work to repair a water main break.
Only local traffic will be allowed to pass through. Northbound travel lanes remain open to traffic.
Barricades and signs will be located in the area to assist with traffic flow.
Please use caution when driving in the area. Modifications may be necessary during the course of the work.
