2/1/19 @ 2:30 p.m. - A traffic shift for State Road 200 between Chester Road to Nassauville Road is scheduled for February 8-February 10, 2019. The eastbound traffic will be shifted to the newly constructed asphalt in the middle of the road to allow for re-construction of the old east bound roadway. This means that both directions of traffic in this area will now be on new pavement for the rest of phase of the overall project and not the old deteriorating roadway. This is very exciting news!

This is being done in conjunction with Phase II of the overall State Road 200/A1A Widening Project. Phase II is a 4.9 mile project between Rubin Davis Lane and Nassauville Road. This entire segment is anticipated to be completed the spring of 2020.

If you have any questions, please contact England, Thims & Miller at (904) 265-3151.
