## About

The purpose of this project was to preserve and extend the life of the existing pavement, provide safety modifications, improve ADA facilities, and improve overall road operations.

As of January 26, 2026, all construction activities associated with this project have been completed.

The roadway was milled and resurfaced along with new pavement markings and signs. Traffic signals were upgraded at the SR 54 intersections of Trinity Boulevard, Community Drive, and Gunn Highway. A median opening east of Community Drive was closed.
