That the Board adopt and authorize the Chairman to sign the Resolution Authorizing the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) to Detour Traffic from a State Road to a County Road Pursuant to Completion of the SR 95 Widening Project, in order to utilize County roadways due a to temporary road closure on Nine Mile Road to allow for the widening of the bridge, which is part of the State Road (SR) 95 (Highway 29) widening project from SR 8 (Interstate 10) to 0.5 miles north of SR 10 (US 90A/Nine Mile Road) in conjunction with FPID Number 218603-1-52-01.

BACKGROUND:

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) proposes to undertake and complete a multi-lane reconstruction project (FPID Number 218603-1-52-01) on State Road (SR) 95 (Highway 29) from I-10 to Nine and One-Half Mile Road. This project is expected to begin Summer 2016. It is necessary that Nine Mile Road, owned and maintained by FDOT, be intermittently closedduring night time hours for the bridge construction, specifically for beam placement.

FDOT is requesting a Resolution authorizing them to detour state road traffic to a county road during these intermittent night time road closures.

For eastbound traffic, the detour will be right onto the southbound ramp of SR 95 to the traffic signal at Hood Drive, where the detour will go left onto Hood Drive to North Palafox Street. The detour will then direct traffic left onto North Palafox Street to the traffic signal at Nine Mile Road.

For westbound traffic, the detour will be right onto the northbound ramp of SR 95 to the signal at Nine and One-Half Mile Road, where the detour will go left onto Nine and One-Half Mile Road to Cove Avenue. The detour will then direct traffic left onto Cove Avenue to return to Nine Mile Road.
