Work is expected to begin in March on a project to reconfigure the intersection at Solana Road and La Pasada Circle.
The Solana Road Safety Improvement Project will convert the intersection at La Pasada Circle into a right-turn-in and right-turn-out entrance. Turn lanes on State Road A1A will be extended to accommodate traffic.
Motorists will no longer be able to turn left from Solana Road onto La Pasada Circle.
The purpose of the project is to improve safety in that area. Solana Road is known for high truck counts and collisions. The new configuration will reduce the potential for collisions and decrease the truck count on the road.
In addition, the roadway will be resurfaced.
The project is expected to get under way following THE PLAYERS Championship, which is scheduled to wrap up March 14.
During the work, motorists should expect to see temporary lane closures and lane shifts, as well as traffic detours with signage for homes and businesses in the area. There may also be intermittent roadway obstructions during construction.
Work on the project is expected to be complete in the summer.
Cost of the project is estimated at $500,000.
