A PD&E re-evaluation study was performed on this corridor and provides improvement recommendations. Due to funding, these recommended improvements will be implemented in phases. The first phase will incorporate widening US 19 at SR 694 (Gandy Boulevard/Park Boulevard) and on Gandy Boulevard to provide dual left-turn lanes southbound to eastbound. Operational improvements to the off-ramps from Gandy Boulevard onto US 19 will also be addressed. Bicycle and pedestrian accommodations will be implemented where feasible.

In addition to the turn lanes, this project will look at signalizing the following intersections:

• US 19 and Gateway Center Boulevard
• Park Boulevard and 40th Street North

Future projects will address the remaining PD&E re-evaluation recommendations.

Design is currently underway. Construction is not currently funded.
