The Florida Department of Transportation has delayed emergency repairs on Nine Mile Road between the Escambia River Bridge and Scenic Highway.

All lanes will open to traffic as Florida Department of Transportation personnel reevaluate the construction project in order to reduce traffic impacts and minimize delays.

Construction began on Aug. 25 to repair the westbound outside, right lane and shoulder that was damaged by heavy rains and flooding in the area in April 2014.

Temporary safety measures have been put in place until permanent repairs can be completed. Construction crews will still be on site conducting secondary repairs off of the roadway that will not impact travelers.
