Sarasota N. Tamiami Trail: Water main replacement update

City of Sarasota

Excellent progress has been made on the multi-phase, multi-year infrastructure improvement project replacing aging water main segments under N. Tamiami Trail.

While all travel lanes were reopened prior to the holidays as initial project phases concluded, work will resume over the next week, with construction between Dr. MLK Jr. Way and Myrtle Street.

As with prior phases, temporary lane closures will be required. One lane of the North Trail will be closed in each direction within the project area as work on this significant infrastructure improvement continues. Two-way traffic will be maintained throughout the duration of the project.

We appreciate everyone’s patience as we replace 60-year-old pipes and enhance resiliency within the drinking water distribution system.
