## Project Description The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) plans to widen East Colonial Drive (State Road (S.R.)) 50) from Avalon Park Boulevard to Chuluota Road (County Road 419) in east Orange County. The projects will add one lane in each direction, resulting in three travel lanes in each direction separated by a raised median. Full and directional medians will be provided at several locations along the corridor. Additionally, these projects will add shared-use paths on both sides of the roadway. New or enhanced pedestrian crosswalks will also be provided at signalized intersections, and pedestrian curb ramps will be upgraded to meet current Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards. Landscaping is proposed along portions of the project corridor. Drainage improvements and modifications to the existing park-and-ride facility are also planned.

New traffic signals are being added at Sherman Street and Tanner Road. The existing directional medians will be improved at both locations. The project also will signalize the Grow Boulevard intersection and add a new crosswalk equipped with a Pedestrian Hybrid Beacon (PHB) at Sandy Creek Lane. After construction, Duke Energy will provide lighting along the entire project corridor. These projects were originally developed under FPID No. 239203-7. The widening will now be constructed under FPID Nos. 456096-1 and 456096-2. In addition, FDOT is designing and constructing a new two-lane bus access road from East River High School to East Colonial Drive at the Corner School Drive intersection. This work is being done under project 239203-7. Please see more information on the reverse side. ## Contact:
