Please be advised that beginning Monday, December 17th, two temporary roadway projects will impact traffic patterns for upcoming Lightning home games and other events at AMALIE Arena. See below for more information regarding these projects and the resulting event traffic patterns.

Channelside Drive Re-Grading Project

 

  • Where?/When?:  Channelside Drive will be re-graded from Old Water Street to Meridian Avenue just East of AMALIE Arena. The project will commence on December 17, 2018 and it is scheduled to be completed on January 29, 2019.
  • Game/Event Arrival:  Traffic flow on Channelside Drive will be reduced to one westbound lane between Old Water Street and Meridian Avenue during the first phase of construction.
  • Post-Game/Event Departure:  Traffic flow on Channelside Drive will be reduced to one eastbound lane between Old Water Street and Meridian Avenue during the first phase of construction. 
  • Allow Extra Time: If your travels to and/or from downtown include navigation east of AMALIE Arena, we recommend factoring extra time into your travel plans to ensure arrival prior to event start time.
