Published on April 22, 2025
Below are the road and lane closures happening in the city of Clearwater:
Utility Projects
- Eldridge Street is closed at Blanche B. LittleJohn Trail from April 18 to May 2 for sewer point repairs. Detours will be posted.
- Northbound lanes of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue between Court Street and Cleveland Street, will be closed from April 23 to May 23 for potable water utility improvements.
- Northbound lanes of Stewart Boulevard between Summerlin Drive, and Williams Drive, will be closed from April 2 to April 29, for stormwater pipe repairs and improvements.

Road Construction
- The southbound US 19 exit ramp to Drew Street will close nightly from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. beginning March 9, through late 2025. During the nighttime closure, motorists will need to exit at Frontage Road, toward Northeast Coachman Road. To reach Drew Street, motorists should turn right onto Northeast Coachmen road, left to Belcher Road, then proceed south toward Drew Street.
-
North- and south-bound median lanes of Island Way, between Skiff Point and Dory Passage, will be closed for approximately eight months. The project started in August 2024 and will run through May 2025. The closure is due to the replacement of an iron-cast water main along with other underground utility work. Flaggers will be present at times, so expect some traffic delays.
