About

The purpose of this project is to implement pedestrian safety improvements along Woodland Boulevard (U.S. 17-92) from East Beresford Avenue to Plymouth Avenue in DeLand. Improvements include upgrading existing pedestrian crossings and adding six new pedestrian crossings at the following locations:

  • East Winnemissett Avenue
  • DeLand Intermodal Transportation Facility
  • Georgia Avenue
  • Michigan Avenue
  • University Avenue
  • South of Pennsylvania Avenue

The crossings would be equipped with Rapid Rectangular Flashing Beacons (RRFBs), which are pedestrian-activated signals that display flashing yellow lights to alert drivers that a pedestrian is ready to cross. By state law, vehicles must stop at all marked crosswalks when a pedestrian is present.
