Project Details
About
The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) is implementing safety and operational
improvements along U.S. 192 (West New Haven Avenue/State Road (S.R.) 500). To extend the
life of the existing roadway, the project will resurface West New Haven Avenue from Interstate
95 (I-95) to S.R. 507 (Babcock Street) in the cities of Melbourne, West Melbourne,
and Melbourne Village.
In addition to the resurfacing, the project will include operational enhancements such as
extending left turn lanes and reconstructing existing medians. These safety improvements will
focus on enhancing pedestrian and bicycle safety features along West New Haven Avenue.
These improvements include restriping travel lanes in both directions to provide 6- foot-wide
bicycle lanes.
The project will realign and upgrade existing crosswalks and add new pedestrian crossings
throughout the project limits. Furthermore, pedestrian curb ramps will be reconstructed to
meet current Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards, and pedestrian signals will be
upgraded. Drainage and lighting improvements are also planned.
