Tampa, Fla.-(Newsradio 970 WFLA)-It may not be spring yet, but the Selmon Expressway is getting a spring cleaning. The project is expected to take the next four weeks to complete.
The Tampa Hillsborough Expressway Authority says it will start pressure washing the reversible express lanes on the Selmon this Sunday, March 13, at 8 p.m. Those reversible lanes will shut down each night at 8 p.m. and won't reopen until 5 a.m.
Eastbound vehicles will be directed off the expressway at 22nd Street and Adamo Drive and then back on the Selmon at 50th Street. Westbound vehicles will have the same detour in reverse.
The 22nd Street tolls will be suspended during the time of the closures. Closures will also be timed not to affect eastbound traffic after Tampa Bay Lightning games at Amalie Arena.
