FORT LAUDERDALE, FLA. (WSVN) - South Florida drivers should expect some delays and detours for the next few nights in Fort Lauderdale.

The Henry E. Kinney Tunnel, which carries drivers on U.S. 1 underneath the New River and Las Olas Boulevard, will be out of commission as it undergoes extensive cleaning.

The northbound lanes will be closed down from 9 p.m. until about 4 a.m. on Tuesday, and the southbound lanes will be shut down from 9 p.m. to 4 a.m. on Wednesday.

Drivers can use Southeast Third Avenue as an alternate route while the tunnel is closed.
