Public Information Meeting for John Young Parkway Widening Project

Posted on January 8, 2018


The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) is holding a public meeting regarding the State Road (S.R.) 423/John Young Parkway widening construction project. The meeting is an informal open house format scheduled for next Tuesday, Jan. 16, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at The American Legion Department of Florida, 1912A Lee Road, Orlando, FL 32810. Plans will be available for review and project staff will be available to address questions.
The $28 million project will widen John Young Parkway from four to six lanes beginning at S.R. 50/West Colonial Drive and ending at Shader Road. Other improvements include curb and gutter, drainage, two new ponds, sidewalks, lighting, signing and pavement markings, intelligent transportation system (ITS) improvements, and signals. Work is slated to begin early 2018.
