Portion of Florida Avenue in Joplin to be closed

(From the City of Joplin)

Starting Tuesday, Nov. 1, Florida Avenue just south of 4th Street will be closed to allow road repairs to be completed to approximately one block length. Portions of the pavement have deteriorated and are being replaced. This closure is estimated for two weeks. With good weather closure period could be shortened.

Drivers in the area should take alternative routes during the construction period. Signs have been in place announcing the closure start date. East and westbound traffic along 4th Street will not be affected.
