Multiple Road Closures Planned This Week

Traffic calming, a crane and a Cinco de Mayo celebration are the cause for several road closures in Clearwater this week.

Garden Avenue from Drew to Cleveland streets is closed from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Saturday, May 4, as a crane is put in place to repair air conditioning equipment on the roof of 33 N. Garden Avenue. Myrtle Avenue can be used as a detour. Hendricks Street, between East and Waterson avenues, and Laura Street, from East Avenue to Hendricks Street, also will be closed. Drew Street can be used as a detour.
