Both Forsyth Street and Adams Street are one-way roads right now, and will soon become two-way.
There will be a detour via I-295 to Monument Road. FDOT says there will continue to be congestion in the area.First Coast News JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — After the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office has issued a traffic about a backup on I-295 Wednesday afternoon, the Florida Department of Transportation now says congestion to the area could persist for more than a week.
The traffic is due to a sanitary sewer break on Merrill Road at Ft. Caroline Road. All eastbound lanes on Merrill Road near Fort Caroline Road are closed down. FDOT says it will last through early May. JEA is working to fix the break, according to Spokesperson Karen McAllister. They do not know yet how long it will take.
If you are trying to come off of Fort Caroline road and go east on Merrill Road, you will have to go the other way and take a detour from Merrill Road to I-295, to Monument Road back to Ft. Caroline Road. This detour is pictured below, with the sewer main break between the blue line and red line.Related Articles
