South Florida Roads (Miami-Dade and Monroe Counties)

 
Welcome
 

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) is developing the design for a roadway project located at the intersection of SR 5/US 1 and SW 17 Avenue, in Miami-Dade County. 

WORK TO BE PERFORMED:

  • Converting the existing left turn movements to a protected left turn only for both southound and northbound directions
  • Improving the existing traffic signal
  • Extending the length of the existing left turn lanes along the northbound and southbound direction to increase vehicular capacity
  • Repaving and restriping the road
  • Upgrading existing vehicular signage                                                                                                      

MAINTENANCE OF TRAFFIC

During construction, there will be temporary lane closures during non-peak hours and detours will have effects on traffic. Pedestrian detours will be established with clear signage. Access to adjacent businesses and neighborhoods will be maintained.
