SR 64 at Rye road
The intersection of SR 64 at Rye Rd was reconstructed in 2007 as part of the widening of SR 64. Since that time, local development has exploded in the area driving significant volumes through the intersection. In addition to more volume, the roadway characteristics of this one-time rural area encouraged higher speeds and as a result, safety issues were becoming more common at the intersection. PGA assisted FDOT District One with changing the context of the corridor and establishing a modern roundabout at the intersection. With this new intersection control, development to south could be added without compromising safety through a new leg of the intersection. PGA led the design of this multi-lane roundabout, which included significant drainage improvements, utility coordination, right-of-way coordination, and complex traffic control plans. Other unique challenges addressed with this project included, tight ROW along the northside of SR 64, Joint-Use Pond Agreement with the Developer and a Utility Work by Highway Contract Agreement (UWHCA) where the contractor performed all of the county utility relocations as part of the construction efforts.
The project was officially completed in October 2020.
