Fort Walton Beach southbound traffic shift is June 2

FORT WALTON BEACH  — Drivers traveling State Road 189 (Beal Parkway) at Gap Creek Bridge will encounter intermittent lane restrictions as crews work to transition traffic from the median to the newly constructed southbound roadway.

Crews will then complete work in the median, lay the final layer of asphalt (friction course) and stripe the roadway. 

Hours are 11 p.m. June 2 to 6 a.m.  Friday, June 3. Motorists are reminded to use caution and obey the posted speed limit when traveling through the work zone. The project is slated for completion early July.

Construction activities are weather dependent and may be rescheduled in the event of inclement weather.
