BACKGROUND:

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) has notified Escambia County that CR 196 (Barrineau Park Road) qualifies for funding through the Highway Safety Program. The justification was based on the crash rate for this portion of CR 196. FDOT has completed the design of needed improvements and the next step is construction of the improvements. The improvements include roadway widening and the installation of 2' paved shoulders on both sides, resurfacing the travel lanes, and minor safety upgrades. The construction project will be administered by Escambia County. FDOT will reimburse the County as costs are incurred. The submittal must include a Resolution from the BOCC which authorizes support for the project.

BUDGETARY IMPACT:

A supplemental budget amendment will be prepared by the Office of Management and Budget to recognize the funding for the LAP Agreement.
