Signalization improvements are part of the U.S. 98 resurfacing project, from east of U.S. 331 to Peach Creek, in Walton County. Here is a look at crews installing a vehicle detection camera at the U.S. 98/County Road 283 intersection. The camera is mounted on the mast arm of the traffic signal to provide vehicle presence detection and traffic data collection used for signal timing. This $8.3 million project also includes resurfacing 4.5 miles of U.S. 98 from east of U.S. 331 to Peach Creek, constructing a westbound right-turn lane at Blakely Drew Boulevard, shoulder widening, drainage enhancements, and new signage and pavement markings. The project is estimated for completion later this year. (Contributed)
