A City of Tampa-approved sidewalk detour will be in place for pedestrians. Greenway users will be directed to use E. Brorein St. during the closure.

🚧 Keeping You Informed
Have you noticed the black fencing going up along parts of the South Selmon corridor? Being a good neighbor is important to our agency. The fencing helps contain dust and debris within the work zone, creates a cleaner view from neighborhood streets, and provides an added buffer between construction activities and nearby homes, businesses, and pedestrians.
