84th Street Sinkhole Forces Detours | Omaha News

Southbound 84th Street in La Vista is shut down due to a sinkhole caused by heavy rains, forcing detours and frustrating locals already coping with ongoing construction. This latest setback follows prior damage from a washed-out storm inlet, now requiring urgent repairs expected to reopen by Thursday—if weather permits. Part of a $12 million project launched last October, the roadwork aims to connect Central Park West to the east side of 84th Street, eventually linking to new park amenities like an aquatic center and expanded trails. Residents are dealing with rerouted traffic clogging neighborhood streets, while crews project completion of southbound lanes in 45–60 days, with northbound work to follow—bringing the entire project to a close by next fall.
