About

The purpose of this project is to resurface Silver Springs Boulevard (State Road (S.R.) 40) from South Pine Avenue (U.S. 441/U.S. 301) to NE 25th Avenue. The project also will upgrade pedestrian curb ramps as needed in accordance with current Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards.

This project includes turn-lane improvements at the intersection of South Pine Avenue and West Silver Springs Boulevard. The purpose of the intersection project is to extend the two left-turn lanes on northbound South Pine Avenue to westbound West Silver Springs Boulevard and to extend the right-turn lane on northbound South Pine Avenue to eastbound West Silver Springs Boulevard.

The extension of the turn lanes will improve traffic flow and reduce congestion. To accommodate the extension of the two left-turn lanes, the midblock crosswalk on South Pine Avenue near Southwest Broadway Street will be removed. This intersection project is scheduled to begin in March 2026 and is estimated for completion in the summer of 2026.
