Hollywood, Florida – Residents and commuters near Dawson Street and SW 56th Avenue can expect construction activity starting next month, as underground utility and roadwork improvements are scheduled to begin on July 7, 2025. The work is part of the District 3C Water and Sewer Improvement Project and will continue through September 8, 2025.

Officials urge motorists and pedestrians to stay alert in the affected zone and prepare for detours or temporary delays throughout the two-month project. While access to residences and local businesses will remain available, traffic may be reduced to one lane in certain sections to ensure the safety of both workers and the public.

“This type of infrastructure work is essential to support growth in the area and to maintain reliable service for residents,” said a spokesperson for the project. “We appreciate everyone’s patience as we work to complete this upgrade safely and efficiently.”

The improvements are expected to enhance both water and wastewater capacity in the region, helping to modernize aging systems and prevent future service disruptions. Once completed, the newly paved roadway will also improve travel conditions for drivers and cyclists in the neighborhood.
