About

This project implemented safety improvements on Oakridge Boulevard (State Road (S.R.) 430) from the east side of the Halifax River to S.R. A1A. The roadway was repurposed by reducing the number of travel lanes from three to two and creating a 7-foot-wide, green, buffered bicycle lane. 

As part of this project, the Department introduced the innovative ZICLA Zipper bicycle buffering system, which is the first of its kind to be used in an FDOT construction project. The ZICLA Zipper system consists of a series of reflective, raised separators designed to protect cyclists and prevent motorists from entering the bike lane.

Other improvements include a dedicated left-turn lane from Oakridge Boulevard onto Halifax Avenue, repaving Oakridge Boulevard to extend the life of the existing roadway, and landscaping enhancements. Additional pedestrian and bicycle improvements are also included in the project such as upgrading existing sidewalks and adding a bicycle lane transition at Grandview Avenue. A bicycle lane transition provides a place where bicyclists can safely and easily access the sidewalk from the bicycle lane.
