Youngstown officials announced that a stretch of West Federal Street downtown will be closed on Friday, Oct. 16, 2026, tied to the Wear Red, Get Fed event.
The city's news post states the shutdown covers West Federal Street between Phelps Street and Hazel Street. According to the announcement, the closure is expected to begin around 4 p.m. and continue until 11:59 p.m., which the notice describes as coming after the event concludes.
The posting also points readers to a map, though the web address included in the text appears incomplete. Municipal officials did not list detour routes, address access for nearby businesses, or indicate when the street would reopen beyond the stated time.
Motorists traveling through that part of downtown during the evening should expect the segment to be unavailable and may want to choose another route.
