The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) improved safety and operations on North Orange Avenue (State Road (S.R.) 527) from Magnolia Avenue to north of Rollins Street in Orlando. This project reconfigured the roadway from Magnolia Avenue to north of Ivanhoe Boulevard to provide one travel lane in each direction and additional on‑street parking. In some areas, the curb was extended to shorten crossing distances for pedestrians, and in other areas, floating islands were built to help define the on‑street parking.
Raised intersections were constructed at Highland Avenue and Ivanhoe Boulevard to encourage safer driving speeds along the corridor. Additional improvements included milling and resurfacing the roadway, drainage modifications, upgraded pedestrian signalization, and curb ramps to comply with current Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards.
