SUMMARY:
The Florida Department of Transportation has funded Preliminary Engineering for design of West Main Street in fiscal year 2022/2023 in the amount of $249,000. The project extends from Barrancas Avenue to South Clubbs Street for approximately 0.78 miles.
The proposed design reflects the preferred alternative of a multi-use path, bike lanes, and enhanced crosswalks according to the Florida-Alabama Transportation Planning Organization’s (TPO’s) West Main Street Corridor Management Plan.
This corridor has been a transportation priority for the City of Pensacola and advocated for in the Florida-Alabama TPO’s annual project priorities. The City has been approved by the Florida Department of Transportation to enter into local agency program agreement on a project-by-project basis and such agreements are required for assistance through federal-aid funds.
A resolution of support is required to authorize the City to enter into a Local Agency Program agreement with the Florida Department of Transportation and accept the federal-aid funds in the amount of $249,000.
