Expect Daytime Delays on Beeline Highway Starting Today — Lane Closure Details Inside

Palm Beach Gardens, FL · August 24, 2026

Happy Monday — keep a little extra time on your commute schedule today as daily lane closures kick off along the Beeline Highway.


The Lead

Commuters taking the Beeline Highway heading southeast toward Northlake Boulevard should prepare for new daytime lane closures starting this morning. The Florida Department of Transportation’s ongoing corridor reconstruction project enters a new phase today, shutting down one outside lane north of Northlake Boulevard from 6:00 AM to 5:00 PM on weekdays. Additionally, crew activity between the Florida’s Turnpike overpass and Steeplechase Drive will keep one inside lane closed during the same daily window.

The work aims to overhaul road drainage, upgrade traffic signals, and improve pavement conditions along one of the county’s key freight and suburban arteries. While through-traffic will remain open, drivers can expect bottlenecking during peak morning and evening travel hours. Transportation officials recommend using Military Trail or Jog Road as alternative routes where possible, with weekday lane restrictions expected to run through Friday afternoon.
