A section of Lewis Drive is closed for structural road repairs after the road collapsed under the weight of a garbage truck on Sept. 5.
Lewis Drive between Lewiston Place and Lewis Shire Way has been closed effective immediately due to safety concerns until the necessary repairs are made, a press release from Palm Coast said.
The road will be closed until repairs are completed and detour signs have already been placed at the scene. The road collapsed because of a pipe failure underneath the roadway, Communications and Marketing Director Brittany Kershaw said in an email.
The city hopes to have a time frame for the repair by Wednesday, Sept. 6, but needs additional information before a repair can be scheduled, Kershaw said. The city is still looking to see what company the garbage truck belonged to.
During the road closure, traffic will be redirected to Lewis Drive for access to London Drive, the press release said. Residents traveling on Lewis Drive will be detoured to Lewisdale Lane for access to Lewis Drive.
