The section of East Intendencia Street between South Jefferson Street and South Tarragona Street will close beginning July 15, 2015.

The road closure is to assist in the ongoing demolition of the old Pensacola News Journal building and the construction of the new building complex and YMCA. Starting July 15, there will be no through access of any kind available.

“Due to the demolition and construction size as well as other concerns with the two site locations to include the safety of the traveling public we needed to close this section of road,” said Transportation Engineer, Ryan Novota.

The closure is estimated to last approximately 30 months.
