Project Details
About
The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) is implementing safety and operational improvements on U.S. 1 (State Road (S.R.) 5) from Myers Drive to the Crane Creek bridge in Melbourne and Palm Bay. The project includes resurfacing the roadway to extend its life, drainage improvements, sidewalk enhancements, and safety upgrades.
Bicycle safety is being improved by restriping the travel lanes to provide 7-foot-wide buffered bicycle lanes from Myers Drive to University Boulevard. Pedestrian curb ramps are being reconstructed to meet current Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards, and pedestrian signals will be upgraded. Enhanced lighting at signalized intersections is also included.
This project includes elements of a Streetscape project from the City of Melbourne, which proposes pedestrian improvements, construction of raised medians from Avenida Del Rio to Crane Creek Bridge, and the addition of directional medians at Roosevelt Avenue and Jernigan Avenue. The raised medians and directional medians will restrict left turns from some side streets and driveways onto U.S. 1.
