Starting Monday, Nov. 18, drivers traveling both northbound and southbound on U.S. 1 will now utilize the newly constructed roundabout, as follows:

• Northbound U.S. 1 traffic will continue north on U.S. 1 and can use either lane.
• Southbound U.S. 1 traffic will travel down the existing lane of the southbound roadway and enter the roundabout to continue south on U.S. 1.
• Northbound U.S. 1 traffic will use the right lane to access Old Dixie Highway or County Road (C.R.) 325.
• Southbound U.S. 1 traffic wishing to access Old Dixie Highway or C. R. 325 will travel through the roundabout to access the roadways.

This new traffic pattern will allow the contractor to complete the southbound U.S. 1 bypass lanes, and the southbound traffic separator at the roundabout. For more information about modern roundabouts please visit fdot.tips/roundabout 

One left lane in both northbound and southbound directions will be closed during daytime and nighttime hours.

These closures will help to accommodate the construction of the temporary roadway that will be used during phase two of the project for a traffic shift that will be necessary to safely replace the underground drainage system.
