FDOT: East Arlington detours continue this weekend

Jacksonville, FL — If you’re a frequent East Arlington driver, you might notice a slight shift to your drive over the weekend.

According to the Florida Department of Transportation, detours will be in place for McCormick Road and Fort Caroline Road between Friday, February 1 at 7 pm and Monday, February 4 at 5 am. FDOT says the detours are necessary so crews can safely finish some drainage work included in the Wonderwood Drainage Improvements project.

FDOT says McCormick Road eastbound traffic will be detoured right on St. Johns Bluff Road, then left on Monument Road to McCormick. Westbound drivers will turn left on Monument, then right on St. Johns Bluff to McCormick.

Fort Caroline Road westbound traffic will turn left on McCormick, then right on Monument, and then take another right onto St. Johns Bluff.

FDOT says there will be signs and message boards directing traffic through the detour.

According to FDOT, J.B. Coxwell Contracting Inc. is expected to complete the nearly $8 million project this summer.
