Project Description: CFX Osceola Parkway Extension Project Development and Environment (PD&E) Study Re-evaluation
The Central Florida Expressway Authority (CFX) is conducting a Project Development and Environment (PD&E) Study Re-evaluation for the proposed Osceola Parkway Extension. The study will determine if a new expressway connection between State Road 417 near Boggy Creek Road and the proposed Sunbridge Parkway is viable and fundable in accordance with CFX policies and procedures.
The overall goals of the proposed Osceola Parkway Extension are to provide improved connections between area roads; accommodate anticipated transportation demand; provide consistency with local and regional plans; support economic viability and job creation; support intermodal opportunities; and enhance evacuation and emergency services.
As special advisory resources to CFX and the consultant team, the PAG and EAG provide input regarding environmental impacts, local needs, concerns and potential physical, natural, social and cultural impacts that are crucial in the evaluation of corridor and alternative alignments.
A study information sheet will be distributed at the meeting.
When the PD&E Study Re-evaluation concludes, it will result in a recommendation to the CFX Governing Board of the preferred alternative. If the project is approved by the CFX Governing Board, it would move forward for further project development.
