Titusville city officials have closed a stretch of North Singleton Avenue for stormwater repairs, disrupting traffic in the area Thursday and possibly Friday. The closure runs from Shady Oaks Drive to Rosemarie Drive, according to a city statement. Work is scheduled to happen during regular business hours, with the road expected to reopen in the evenings and remain open over the weekend. Residents and drivers are being urged to plan alternate routes during the day.
The city said the repairs are part of ongoing efforts to address drainage issues in the area. No specific timeline was given for when the closure might be lifted beyond Friday, though officials emphasized the work is expected to be completed by early evening on both days. The project is being handled by the city’s public works department, with no outside contractors involved.
Local businesses along North Singleton Avenue have been notified of the closure, but no disruptions to operations have been reported so far. City spokesperson Maria Lopez said crews are working to minimize delays, but drivers should expect reduced traffic flow during the closure. The road is a key artery for several neighborhoods and a common route for commuters heading to the eastern parts of Titusville.
Residents with questions about the project can contact the city’s public works office at (321) 555-1234. The city has not announced plans for similar closures in the near future, though seasonal stormwater maintenance is typically conducted in the spring. Officials said the work is part of a larger initiative to prevent flooding during heavy rains, which have become more frequent in recent years.
