The restrictions will be in place 8 PM to 6 AM weeknights through Friday, July 10. Beginning Monday July 13, the restrictions will be in place 24/7 for approximately 35 days. The left turn lane into the shopping plaza from southbound Route 119 will be closed, motorists will be detoured to the intersection of Huff Ave./Route 819 intersection to turn left to access the plaza.
