Starting Dec. 6, traffic on Central Parkway/C-470 will switch to a detour roadway to facilitate realignment construction. The detour will be a 2.3 mile segment ending near the connection with Marsh Bend Trail.
The realignment improvements include the roundabout at Marsh Bend Trail and C-470, the connection of the old C-470 to Marsh Bend Trail and a multi-modal trail tunnel under C-470.
The detour roadway will be in place for about 10-12 months. The posted speed limit will be 35 miles per hour. The Sumter County Board of County Commissioners asks to please use caution when traveling C-470.
