Commuters on Philips Highway were met with unexpected delays Thursday morning, as off-duty officers closed off a lane in an effort to direct the flow of traffic from an intersecting road.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Residents of the neighborhoods off of Wells Creek Parkway have been asking for a traffic light at the intersection for years.

Harley Alvarez lives off of Wells Creek Parkway and says her husband’s morning commute should be about 10 minutes, but due to the lack of a traffic light at the intersection, he has to hit the road 30 minutes early to ensure he gets to work on time. “I know the community has been patient for the last several years, but like we said earlier, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel and we’re almost there,” said Arias.

“For the first couple days they’re going to try different traffic patterns. Day number one, yesterday, you saw what happened,” said Arias.
