Reconstruction of the existing roadway from a two-lane to a three-lane, divided urban section from Beach Boulevard to Crystal Cove Drive and from Osprey Point Drive to Atlantic Boulevard. These sections will include raised medians, utility improvements, a closed drainage system, bike lanes, sidewalks, and stormwater ponds. From Crystal Cove to Osprey Point Drive, the roadway will be resurfaced with the addition of shoulders, left-turn and right-turn lanes for site access and continuity of the sidewalks. The project involves a complete overhaul of the stormwater collection and conveyance system on the corridor and realignment adding new turn lanes to reduce queuing and improve traffic flow. The design for these improvements is primarily based on addressing safety and drainage improvements.
The contractor is advising that they will complete the project by Mid-December and are escalating work to ensure that all lanes are opened as designed and the project is completed this year. This schedule is very tight and dependent entirely on the contractor and his subcontractors meeting their time commitments. Once the roadway is open in the final traffic pattern some minor touch up operations may continue. Final activation of the new streetlights may also been delayed as the storms affecting Florida this year have had an impact on all electrical work and material supplies. JEA will be activating the new additional streetlights as soon as possible.
Project Phase Construction – Phase 3B
Work planned for next week – 11-18-24 through 12-08-24
NOTES:
The project will reduce traffic congestion and provide safety enhancements for motorists, bicyclists and pedestrians.
