Alachua County Public Works wants to inform residents about an upcoming, temporary overnight closure of Southwest 20th Avenue to support construction activities associated with the Zaya Project (formerly Gilbane Apartments).
The overnight closure is on Southwest 20th Avenue, from Southwest 34th Street to Southwest 38th Terrace, beginning Monday, May 18, through Thursday, May 21, 2026, from 8 p.m. to 5 a.m. nightly. Residents within the closure limits will retain access to their homes.
Detour routes along Southwest 38th Terrace and Hull Road will be clearly marked to guide motorists safely around the closure area.
Drivers should expect delays, follow posted signage and allow extra travel time when navigating the area during closure hours. Through traffic will not be permitted within the work zone.
The closure is necessary to allow crews to safely install a GRU Electric Vault, an essential component of ongoing utility infrastructure improvements.
For more information, contact Alachua County Public Works Construction Inspections Superintendent Aaron G. Burke at 352-548-1240 or aburke@alachuacounty.us.
