Currently, Northeast St. Johns Road is a four-lane road with bicycle lanes and sidewalks on both sides of the roadway. Approximately 15,000 vehicles travel St. Johns Road daily, including approximately 118 daily trips by buses. The condition of the road surface has deteriorated, with cracking and other issues.

The majority of the project’s work includes replacing a portion of the existing concrete slabs on the road surface, improving accessible sidewalk ramps and upgrading accessible pedestrian push buttons at signalized crosswalks. The project also includes pavement restriping and upgrading signage. 

This project will replace the most damaged road surface slabs and will eliminate many of the defects identified in the inspection. This will prolong the life of the roadway by approximately 40 years.

Public Works incorporates resident input when feasible. County projects are designed by professional engineers. We balance community input with other considerations to create the best possible final design. Considerations include legal requirements, environmental impacts, budget, and safety. Input among residents, user groups and stakeholders often differ. While we do our best to incorporate resident input, we are not able incorporate all input or requests.
