UPDATE at 7:08 am – The Military Trail is now open in both directions.

BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2024 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — There is no official explanation as to why, but Boca Raton police are closing southbound Military Trail at Clint Moore Road early Wednesday morning. The closure will begin at 6:30 a.m.

An alert issued by the city of Boca Raton says the closure is “traffic-related.” The closure is notably not far from the area where an FAU student was struck and killed by a car on Sunday. Read more about that death here.

Motorists are encouraged to find alternate routes southbound between Clint Moore and Yamato – and possibly Glades Road. Jog Road to the west should be an effective alternative, but significant delays are expected as traffic that normally uses Military Trail is diverted onto Jog Road.

The closure is scheduled to begin at 6:30 a.m. and last less than an hour. We will let you know as soon as we know more.
