Drivers in Deerfield Beach should plan around a stretch of NE 1st Avenue next week. The city says the road will be closed between NE Eller Street and NE 4th Court from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 17, and Wednesday, Nov. 18, 2026.

The closure is needed to install a sewer manhole near 451 N. River Drive. Excavation within the roadway will make that part of the street unusable during the work hours, according to the city.

Detours will be posted, and the city asks motorists to follow the signs and traffic control devices. Officials acknowledged the closure may cause some inconvenience and said the work is part of traffic calming improvements in the area.

Residents with questions can call the city’s Environmental Services division at 954-250-4307.
