Lake Road Entrance Ramp Temporary Closure: On Thursday, August 4 around 5 p.m., the Lake Avenue entrance ramp to the eastbound Shoreway will close through late-November as the bridge over the Lake Avenue eastbound entrance ramp is replaced. Motorists will be detoured via West Blvd.
*Upcoming Mainline Restrictions*: On Monday, August 8, the Shoreway will be closed in both directions at Lake Avenue and direct access from Clifton Blvd. to the eastbound Shoreway will be closed for approximately 25 days as crews replace the Shoreway bridge over the ramp that carries Lake Avenue onto the Shoreway eastbound. Clifton Blvd. traffic will be detoured north onto West Blvd. to access the Shoreway via the Lake Avenue exit ramp which will be converted for two-way use.
The mainline will also be restricted to one lane in each direction between Lake Avenue and West 73rd Street for approximately 25 daysduring this work.
The following restrictions will be implemented and are designed to help improve the flow of traffic to and from the Shoreway and to mitigate commuter traffic from passing through neighborhoods.
- West Blvd. will be restricted to local access only between Lake Avenue and Edgewater Drive.
- Lake Avenue will be restricted to eastbound only traffic between West Blvd. and Clifton Blvd.
- West Blvd. will be closed to southbound traffic at Clifton Blvd. Motorists must use Detroit Avenue.
With the limited access on the Shoreway delays are expected. Motorists are highly encouraged to seek alternate routes, carpool or ride RTA.
The Shoreway will be open to two lanes in each direction between West 73rd Street and the Main Avenue bridge.
