ABOUT THE PROJECT TAB
The Apollo Beach Boulevard Project will evaluate proposed sidewalk improvements, pedestrian safety for mid-block crossings, and consideration for bicyclists and golf carts such as lane reconfiguration. The study will assess improvements identified in the previous study, including filling sidewalk gaps and repurposing one through lane in each direction for bicycles or combined bicycle/golf cart use. In response to community requests for safety and mobility improvements, the project will also examine the addition of left-turn lanes at the Fairway Boulevard/Manila Palm Way intersection.
The project limits are outlined below.
