According to FDOT, the project will include milling and resurfacing the roadway, updating signage and pavement markings, and extending the left-turn lane at Avenue Du Fontaine Bleau.

Plans also call for widening the right-turn lane and median opening at A-21 Road, adding a curb extension at Green Drive, and making modifications to the median.

Drivers may experience intermittent nighttime lane closures and restrictions between 8 p.m. and 6 a.m. while work is underway. The FDOT said the project is scheduled for completion in late 2026.
