Starting April 5, 2024, the entrance to Ed Stone Park from New York Avenue (State Road (S.R.) 44) will be closed for approximately one month. This closure is necessary to facilitate the construction of the new access road to Ed Stone Park, St. John's Marina, and St. John's River Grill from New York Avenue (S.R. 44). During this period, a detour will be in place to guide motorists to their destinations. Drivers will be directed by video message boards and other signage to follow the designated detour route as follows:
DETOUR: Motorists wishing to access Ed Stone Park or adjacent properties from New York Avenue (S.R. 44) will be directed to take South Shell Road until they reach Old New York Avenue (County Road (C.R.) 4110). Motorists will then continue on Old New York Avenue (C.R. 4110) and travel under the S.R. 44 bridge to access Ed Stone Park, St. John's Marina, and St. John's River Grill.
The construction schedule is subject to change pending weather or other unforeseen circumstances. Please follow posted signage, avoid distractions, and allow extra travel time to reach your destination.
