About

This project proposes to improve safety and operations along State Road (S.R.) 46 from French Avenue (U.S. 17-92) to Mellonville Avenue in Sanford.

The project proposes to widen the sidewalk on the westbound side of S.R. 46 to 10 feet to enhance pedestrian mobility and accommodate bicycles. The sidewalk on the eastbound side of S.R. 46 will remain. The wider sidewalk is possible by changing the travel lane widths. The proposed widths are 11 feet for the outside lanes and 10 feet for inside lanes. A 6-foot-wide bicycle lane will also be added along eastbound S.R. 46, creating connectivity to the existing bicycle lane on Mellonville Avenue.

To enhance safety, sections of raised, grassed or landscaped medians are included. The medians enhance safety by reducing the possibility of left turn and angle crashes at the intersections.

Lane Closures
  • Sunday, January 19 to Friday, January 24, from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. the following morning: Motorists can expect alternating single lane closures on the inside and outside lanes of State Road (S.R.) 46 in both directions, between French Avenue and Mellonville Avenue. These closures are necessary to allow road crews to remove barrier walls and mill/resurface the roadway. 

    FDOT encourages all roadway users to drive, walk and ride with caution and courtesy!
