Scope of Work:

• Widen, mill, and resurface eastbound CR 512 to provide a standard merging lane east of the 108 Avenue intersection.
• Reconfigure the pedestrian ramps and crosswalks at 108 Avenue to shorten the distance for pedestrians crossing CR 512, improving safety by reducing the time to cross the intersection.
• Replace the eastbound and southbound signal mast arms at the CR 512 and 108 Avenue intersection impacted by the widening.
• Regrade the eastbound swales and construct new drainage structures as required.
• Increase lighting at the intersection to make pedestrians more visible to drivers, improving safety.
• Upgrade the eastbound signing and pavement marking as required to meet current standards.

Construction Impacts:

• Work will be done in phases to reduce the effects of construction on the community.
• Partial vehicular detours will be required to complete the mast arm overhead work at the CR 512 and 108 Avenue intersection.
• Partial pedestrian detours will be required to complete the Pedestrian ramps and crosswalk realignment.
• Access to properties along the corridor will be maintained at all times.
• Another public meeting (Construction Open House) will be held prior to construction. Detailed information about how to keep informed of potential construction impacts will be provided at this meeting.
