Project Description: CFX Project Development and Environment Study

Poinciana Parkway Extension (Poinciana Parkway northern terminus to CR 532)

The Central Florida Expressway Authority (CFX) is conducting a Project Development and Environment (PD&E) study for the proposed Poinciana Parkway Extension project. The study is looking at whether extending the Poinciana Parkway to County Road (CR) 532 at the Osceola County/Polk County line is viable and fundable in accordance with CFX policies and procedures.

The meeting will be held in an open house format on Tuesday, September 25, 5:30 p.m. – 7:30 p.m. at the Poinciana High School cafeteria, 2300 S. Poinciana Blvd., Kissimmee, Florida 34758. Attendees will be able to come at any point during the meeting to view the study exhibits, ask questions and provide comments. A looping audiovisual presentation will be available for viewing throughout the meeting.

The overall goals of the Poinciana Parkway Extension include improving the roadway connections from CR 532 to the greater Poinciana area, enhancing mobility of the area’s growing population and economy, relieving congestion on local roads and promoting regional connectivity.

The work includes the evaluation and documentation of the physical, natural, social and cultural environments within the corridors and the potential impacts associated with the various mobility alternatives. Public involvement and interagency coordination are an integral part of the assessment process, and multiple opportunities for participation are being provided.
