A new traffic pattern on P.J. Adams Parkway at Villacrest West will go into effect on January 13th as construction progress continues.

Here are the details…

On Thursday, January 13th, access to Villacrest Drive West from P.J. Adams Parkway will be temporarily closed to traffic as contractors make improvements at that intersection.

The county expects the Villacrest West / PJ Adams intersection closure to last 3 months, weather dependent.

Residents living on Villacrest West will be detoured and gain access using the Villacrest Drive East intersection, but may also use the signalized intersection at Northview.

Residents with questions or concerns can contact Public Works at 850-689-5772.
