Blackrock Rd Construction Beginning January 21

1/16/2014

Please be advised that the Blackrock Road Construction Project will begin on Tuesday, January 21, 2014. This project involves widening of the existing road from SR200/A1A to Heron Isles Parkway, reconstruction of the bridge at Lanceford Creek, and installation of a northbound turn lane onto Heron Isles Parkway from Blackrock Road. The work will occur between 9am-4pm on weekdays and most of the work will require lane closures so motorists should expect some delays. There will also be a 30 day closure of the bridge which should occur sometime during the summer. The bridge closure will be advertised and detour signs will be installed at least two weeks before the closure occurs. All work is expected to be completed by the winter of 2014.

If you have any questions regarding this project, please contact Jonathan Page of the Engineering Services Department at (904) 491-7330 or via e-mail at jpage@nassaucountyfl.com.

Ms. Combs,

Thank you for your comment. The Blackrock Road Project has actually been broken down into three phases. The first phase consisted of surface repairs beginning at the extreme north end of Chester (where it connects to Blackrock) south to Green Pine Road. This phase was completed in the fall of 2013. The second phase is the project beginning on January 21st and consists of widening of Blackrock Road from SR200 to Heron Isles Parkway, in addition to adding the turn lane at Heron Isles Parkway and repairs to the bridge at Lanceford Creek. The third phase is expected to begin in the summer of 2014 as part of the County's Pavement Management Plan. This phase will consist of repairs of Blackrock Road from Heron Isles Parkway to Green Pine Road.

I hope this answers your question.

We live on a private dirt road (blue signage), 1/4 mile north of Heron Isles. Two questions.

1)Is there any way possible to pave the right-of-way on our dirt road (20 ft), connected to Blackrock?

2)When Phase 2 begins, what will be done with the old asphalt? We may be interested in a few loads.
