Update 10/13/2025
DB Civil will be opening the detours at 8th Street & Melloville Avenue and Celery Avenue & Brisson Avenue on Wednesday, October 15th, during the afternoon hours, weather permitting. All associated signage, special emphasis striping, and ADA-compliant mats will be installed at both locations.
Please note that sodding at 8th Street and Brisson Avenue will be completed at a later date due to current weather conditions preventing sod cutting in the fields. This delay will not impact pedestrian access or public use of the newly constructed crosswalks.
Pedestrian access at the Brisson Avenue crosswalk will be limited. Pedestrians should cross Celery Avenue at Santa Fe Lane to reach Brisson Avenue, as a new trail is under construction along the north side of Celery Avenue between Santa Fe and Brisson.
Vehicular traffic will have full access to the newly constructed crosswalks.
Additionally, the start date for the Celery Key and Celery Avenue detour has been rescheduled from Monday, October 13th to Thursday, October 16th. This detour will not be implemented until the Celery Avenue & Brisson Avenue detour is fully open to traffic.
