Bonaventure Boulevard paving work begins June 7
Weston, Florida – The City of Weston has begun work on a key roadway improvement effort aimed at upgrading one of its main traffic corridors. The Bonaventure Boulevard Milling and Resurfacing Project officially gets underway on June 7, 2026, marking the start of several weeks of nighttime construction designed to improve driving conditions and extend the lifespan of the road.
The project focuses on Bonaventure Boulevard between Griffin Road and Indian Trace, a stretch heavily used by both residents and commuters. Work will take place overnight, from 8:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m., and is scheduled to continue through July 7, 2026.
City officials say the timing of the work is intentional. By shifting construction to nighttime hours, the city aims to reduce disruptions to daily traffic flow and minimize delays during peak commuting times. Even with nighttime operations, residents may still notice noise and temporary lane shifts in the area.
The scope of the project includes more than just resurfacing the roadway. Crews will also carry out milling of the existing pavement, replacement of road markings, and rehabilitation of sidewalks and curb ramps within the project boundaries. These upgrades are intended to improve safety for both drivers and pedestrians while ensuring the corridor remains functional for years to come.
Officials emphasize that maintaining transportation infrastructure is a long-term investment. Regular resurfacing helps address normal wear and tear, preventing issues such as potholes, cracks, and uneven surfaces that can develop over time. In addition to improving the driving experience, better pavement conditions also contribute to safer travel by enhancing traction and making roadway markings more visible.
Access along Bonaventure Boulevard will remain open throughout construction. The city has confirmed that no full closures are expected. Instead, work will be completed in phases, with lane closures occurring only during non-peak hours. Emergency services, residents, and local businesses will continue to have access to the area at all times.
Motorists passing through the construction zone are being urged to exercise caution. Temporary signs and traffic control measures will be in place to guide drivers safely through the work area. Officials also recommend that travelers allow extra time for their trips, particularly during overnight hours when lane configurations may change.

While construction projects often bring short-term inconvenience, city leaders say the long-term benefits are significant. Improved pavement conditions, updated sidewalks, and refreshed roadway markings are expected to enhance both safety and mobility along this busy corridor.
The City of Weston has also expressed appreciation to the community for its patience during the project. Officials note that cooperation from residents and commuters plays an important role in allowing infrastructure improvements to proceed smoothly and efficiently.
As work gets underway, Bonaventure Boulevard will see a steady transformation over the coming weeks. By early July, the roadway is expected to offer a smoother, safer, and more durable driving surface, reflecting the city’s ongoing efforts to maintain and modernize its transportation network.
