Roosevelt Drive Complete Street Project

The Roosevelt Drive Complete Street Improvements Project focuses on the segment of roadway between Cypress Gardens Boulevard (State Road 540) and Register Road, creating a safer, more walkable, and more connected roadway for everyone who travels the corridor. The project is designed to balance the needs of drivers and pedestrians while enhancing the overall function, appearance, and connectivity of the street.

These improvements will establish an additional roadway connection between Cypress Gardens Boulevard and Register Road, improving local traffic circulation and helping to reduce congestion within the surrounding network. By enhancing safety, improving walkability, and completing this connection, the project supports more efficient travel along the corridor.

Together, these improvements will help calm traffic, improve accessibility, and create a street that better serves residents, businesses, and visitors alike, supporting a more vibrant and connected community.

Improvements include:

  • Roadway extension to create a connection to Register Road
  • Roadway improvements that enhance overall drivability
  • Enhanced pedestrian facilities to support walkability and accessibility
  • Drainage improvements, including raingardens, to improve stormwater management
  • Utility relocation and replacement of the existing water main along the corridor
