Southern Boulevard/State Road 80 Bridge Replacement project, from Washington Road to State Road A1A/South Ocean Boulevard, in Palm Beach County. (FIN: 419013-1-52-01) The Southern Boulevard Bridge Replacement Project consists of replacing the existing bascule bridge and tide relief bridge over the Intracoastal Waterway and Lake Worth Lagoon between the Town of Palm Beach and City of West Palm Beach. New decorative lighting, pedestrian features, traffic signals and drainage are included. A temporary bridge will be built north of the existing bridge to maintain traffic while the replacement bascule bridge is under construction. Construction will begin in spring 2017 and be completed by late 2020. The estimated construction cost is $93 million. During the informal open house, attendees will have the opportunity to review renderings of the new bascule bridge, the construction plans and traffic control plans. FDOT staff and consultant staff members will be available to discuss the project and answer questions. Public participation is solicited without regard to race, color, national origin, age, sex, religion, disability, or family status.
