George Bush Boulevard, between North Andrews Avenue and State Road A1A, is closed for drainage installation through Aug. 8.

The installation comes as the continuing construction work on George Bush Boulevard moves east of the Intracoastal Waterway bridge in Delray Beach.

City contractors will make utility repairs and improve the drainage.

Eastbound traffic will have to turn south onto Andrews Avenue, then go east on Crestwood Drive to reach A1A. Southbound vehicles on A1A can turn onto Pelican Lane and drive west until Andrews Avenue is reached and then follow that street south to George Bush Boulevard.

Construction work will take place Monday through Friday, from 7 a.m. until 6 p.m. and on Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Emergency vehicle, local driveway and pedestrian access will be always provided.

George Bush Boulevard is undergoing $2 million of improvements from Northeast Second Avenue to A1A. The project started in July 2021 and is estimated to end in Summer 2023. The Palm Beach Transportation Planning Agency is paying for the work, which includes milling and resurfacing the road with utilities and drainage improvements and adding 5-foot sidewalks and bike lanes.

Florida Department of Transportation contractors are doing the roadwork. The main contractor is Hardrives of Delray Inc.
