The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) will close the Henry E. Kinney Tunnel and Federal Highway (U.S. 1) between SE 2nd Street and SE 7th Street on Wednesday, Sept. 7, and Thursday, Sept. 8.

Detours will be in place for this closure and traffic flow in the area will be heavily impacted. Those who live and work in the area are advised to plan accordingly and prepare for traffic delays.

DETOUR ROUTES:

• Southbound traffic on Federal Highway (U.S. 1) will be detoured via Broward Boulevard, SE 3rd Avenue, and Davie Boulevard.
• Northbound traffic on Federal Highway (U.S. 1) will be detoured via SE 7th Street, SE 3rd Avenue, and Broward Boulevard.

TRAFFIC IMPACTS:

• Detours will reroute traffic in the area, with electronic signs providing advance notice and clearly marked signage along the detour routes. See maps for detour routes.
• Please follow posted signs and drive with caution while workers are present.

Thank you for your patience as work continues to improve these areas to make them safer, more resilient, and more accessible.
