Summary

Fort Street’s long-awaited construction is nearing its end, set to finish by mid-July, but not before causing major headaches for local businesses. With closed lanes, uneven sidewalks, and traffic chaos, shops like Taza de Cafe and Albert’s Furniture are seeing steep drops in customers — some regulars simply can’t navigate the mess. Officials say the upgrades are vital for water infrastructure, but offer no financial help to struggling spots. Crews remain on schedule, and business owners are pleading with the community to keep coming — even if it means using back entrances — because these local gems still need your support to survive.
