Construction to widen Highway 67 to six lanes between Main Street and Vandenberg Boulevard in Jacksonville requires a temporary detour of TP White Drive Friday, September 1.

Weather permitting, crews will close TP White Drive just south of N. James Street from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. The Highway 67 on-ramp south of N. James Street will remain open. This closure will allow construction crews to perform drainage work for the widening of Highway 67.

TP White Drive traffic wishing to access N. James Street or continue on TP White Drive will follow the signed detour. See attached detour map NR 23-293-A for additional information.

TP White Drive traffic

• East on Ramada
• North on Crestview Drive
• East on Vine Street
• North on N. James Street to TP White Drive

Traffic will be controlled with barricades, traffic drums, and detour signs. The public is advised to be cautious when traveling in the work zone and watch for slower traffic speeds. Areas adjacent to the Interstate may experience noise impacts during nighttime hours.
