University Blvd. reopening and S.R. 33 Construction Update

This notice appeared in the Weekly Phoenix between August 10, 2026 and August 23, 2026.

As the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) continues its work on the I-4 at S.R. 33 interchange project, they are transitioning to the next phase of construction next week. Please note these key traffic updates:

  • University Boulevard reopening: The temporary closure at University Boulevard reopened on Aug. 10, fully restoring this primary route to campus.
  • S.R. 33 at North Combee Road (S.R. 659) closure: Beginning Tuesday, Aug. 11, the entrance at North Combee Road will close for approximately 60 days to allow construction to advance.
  • New detour: Motorists will be detoured via Old Combee Road to reconnect to the other side of the closure. Detour signs will be in place to guide you around the work zone.

Please continue to plan ahead, allow for extra travel time during your commute and exercise caution when driving near active construction. For real-time updates and more project details, visit the FDOT Project Website.
