Project Description: John Young Parkway and Pleasant Hill Road Intersection

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) is holding an informational open house regarding an interim improvement study of the intersection of John Young Parkway (U.S. 17/92 and S.R. 600) and Pleasant Hill Road in Poinciana. These improvements are being evaluated as part of an effort to provide congestion relief in-advance of the current project in design for the widening project on John Young Parkway from Pleasant Hill Road to Portage Street (FPID 418403-3) in Osceola County. The proposed interim improvements include construction of a new roadway within the southeast quadrant of the existing John Young Parkway and Pleasant Hill Road intersection. This new roadway will help relieve congestion and connect the existing John Young Parkway/Oaks Boulevard signal to a new signal located at the existing Fern Drive and Pleasant Hill Road intersection.

The open house will be held on Tuesday, November 5, 2019, from 6:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at Valencia College, Poinciana Campus - 3255 Pleasant Hill Road, Room 1-125, Kissimmee, FL 34746. Interested persons may attend the informational open house at any time between 6 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. A brief presentation by the study team will be provided at 6:45 p.m., and FDOT staff and study team representatives will be available to answer questions before and after the presentation.
