Visual aesthetics include views of the Manatee River from the DeSoto Bridge, the Palmetto Estuary Preserve from multiple locations, and the Manatee River from properties adjacent to the US 41 roadway right-of-way. Views of the Manatee River are considered a unique visual resource in the project area. Stakeholders with a particular interest in the project's aesthetic effects may include property owners abutting the roadway right-of-way and recreational users of the Manatee River Palmetto Estuary Preserve.
