This project is incorporated as one of three distinct construction projects scheduled for early 2024, all taking place simultaneously within the same regions. The additional projects include the SR 9A/I-95 Ramp Improvement project, which construction activities are currently underway, and the SR 913/SW and SE 26 Road Roadway project estimated to commence in April 2024. 

Project details for the SR 913/Rickenbacker Causeway Flyover Bridge Rehabilitation Project are as follows:
 
WORK TO BE PERFORMED
  • Cleaning and painting steel bridge structures
  • Replacing portions of the concrete bridge deck on ramps to northbound SR 9A/I-95 Exwy and southbound SR 5/US 1/S Dixie Hwy
  • Replacing bridge expansion joints
