Project Details
About
The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) will resurface State Road (S.R.) 46 from east of Monroe Road/ Upsala Road (County Road 15) to French Avenue (U.S. 17-92). In addition to resurfacing the roadway, the project recommends replacing the existing center two-way left turn with a raised median to enhance safety and help encourage slower driving speeds. Safety improvements will be made to pedestrian and transit facilities. Curb ramps will be reconstructed to current ADA criteria and new sidewalk will be constructed to fill gaps, providing a continuous route through the project limits.
Some on-street parking will be eliminated to provide 7-foot-wide buffered bicycle lanes. New midblock crossings, along with new sidewalk to fill gaps and upgraded pedestrian curb ramps, are also planned. Existing lighting will be retrofitted to current criteria at three intersections: Central Park Dr/Old England Loop, Martin Luther King Jr Boulevard/Rand Yard Road, and Airport Boulevard/West First Street. Obsolete driveways are to be removed to improve pedestrian mobility.

Lane Closures
-
Monday, January 20 to Friday, January 24, from 6 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.: Motorists can expect alternating single lane closures in both eastbound and westbound directions on State Road (S.R.) 46, between French Avenue and the railroad bridge. These closures will alternate between the inside and outside lanes to allow road crews to safely perform asphalt paving.
FDOT encourages all roadway users to drive, walk and ride with caution and courtesy!
