A Diverging Diamond Interchange (DDI) will be constructed at I-75 and NW 49th Street in Ocala. This interchange will accommodate current and future traffic growth in northern Marion County and provide relief to existing surrounding interchanges. This new interchange will facilitate access to a new Buc-ee's location planned for the area.

A Diverging Diamond Interchange enhances safety and improves efficiency at the interchange by removing the need for traffic to make left turns in front of oncoming traffic. The project includes pedestrian and bicyclist accommodations as well as lighting.

Through a funding agreement with Marion County, a community aesthetic feature will be installed on the bridge. The aesthetic feature will have the word "Ocala" prominently displayed, along with special lighting. 

This project is part of the Moving I-75 Forward initiative and goes with project No. 452074-1. Please check the Moving I-75 Forward website (https://www.movingi75forward.com/) for updates. Project documents, meeting announcements and traffic advisories will be posted there.
