Central Park Road briefly opened for Festival of Lights; final paving slated for February 2026
Summary
County staff said Central Park Road has a temporary opening for evening and weekend access during the Festival of Lights; the project will remain under construction during daytime hours and is not expected to be substantially complete until February 2026.
County staff told the committee Central Park Road is temporarily open to provide access for the Festival of Lights, but emphasized that current paving is temporary and the work will not be substantially complete until February 2026. "The project will not be substantially complete until February 2026," a county representative said, explaining that the temporary paving relieves neighborhood pressure while final surfacing is scheduled for late winter.
Staff said the plan is to open the road during evenings and weekends for the festival and to close it for construction during daytime work as needed; contractors may pause work around holidays, which could extend the temporary access period. Committee members thanked staff for the clarification to avoid public confusion about access and ongoing construction.
