UPT RESURFACING STARTS TOMORROW. SEE PINNED POST ON OUR PAGE FOR MAP/INFO

08/24/2026

🚧UPT RESURFACING STARTS WED AT SECOR
Expect rolling closures with crews closing one section of the University Parks Trail at a time between intersections or pins on the map. When they are finished with one section, they will reopen, move west onto the next section and close that and so forth.

📆This week, crews will start on the trail between Secor Rd and Richard’s Rd on Wednesday, Aug. 26, with crack sealing. Crack sealing the entire UPT should be complete by the end of the week. When crews reached the portion from Holland Sylvania Rd to McCord Rd, they will also be completing some small pavement repairs.

👷‍♂️ Next week, crews will begin resurfacing work, once again starting at Secor and moving west. Expect daily closures one section at a time until resurfacing is complete. Closure signs will be posted near the public entrances to each section.

We can’t give exact time periods when each section will be closed because it’ll depend how long it takes them to complete their work. So trail users should be prepared to encounter closures at different times on different days.

📫POST OFFICE STILL OPEN
It's important to know that the Post Office on Monclova Road remains open during the roundabout construction! There is a temporary access path on Waterville Monclova Road that leads into the parking lot for the post office (pictured below)

🚧Yes, barricades can be scary but our workers are not. If you are unsure when near a work zone, don't be afraid to ask a worker. Businesses and homes in a construction zone always have access maintained unless crews are actively working near their driveways and that work is always temporary.

👷🏻‍♂️We will have an end of Week 3 update up tomorrow!

Partners for Clean Streams and collaborating organizations will host the program on September 27th this year, with seven kickoffs located around the greater-Toledo area. To date, more than 418,000 pounds of trash have been removed from area waterways by over 16,000 volunteers.

Sign up now for this year's clean up and join hundreds of others in keeping our waterways clean.

🚧BRIDGE DECK SEALING
Another form of preventative maintenance we do in house every summer is sealing our bridge decks to keep moisture and water out and prevent corrosion and deterioration.

This is all done in house by our own trained workers. This preventative maintenance helps protect and extend the life of the deck by 7-10 years.

More info on today's ODOT project that started at US 20A and Strayer Road

The intersection of U.S. Route 20A at Strayer Road is now closed for roundabout construction in Lucas County.

Safety funding for this location was awarded in September 2021, when the previous three years of crash data revealed an 86% injury rate within the study period 2018-2020. There have been 13 crashes at the intersection since the funding was awarded.

With increased residential development on the southern leg of the intersection, plus expanded access to the corridor, the location is prime for a single-lane roundabout, which is expected to decrease crash frequency at the intersection by 71% and crash severity by 82%.

The road closure is expected to take 60 days. The posted detour for thru-traffic is to take 20A to I-475 to Airport Highway to 20A and vice versa.
