The Florida Department of Transportation announces a Wekiva Parkway Industry Forum to which all individuals or firm representatives are invited. The forum will provide scope and schedule information to those interested in participating in the department’s sections in Lake and Seminole Counties. There will also be a Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Session and overall project Q&A. The 25-mile tolled expressway will complete Central Florida’s beltway, while helping to protect the natural resources surrounding the Wekiva River. The Department will begin advertising its next parkway sections in 2016, with construction scheduled to begin in 2017.
