North Santa Rosa Transportation Improvements Outlined

September 2, 2010

Several transportation priorities have been identified for northern Santa Rosa County.

The Santa Rosa County Commission will recommend the following proposed projects for 2012-2016 to the West Florida Regional Planning Commission:

  • Four-lane Highway 87 to the Alabama state line to promote regional connectivity between the Gulf Coast and I-65. Until Highway 87 can be four-laned, passing lanes south of Highway 4 to Country Road 399 would improve safety.
  • Construct a trail from the end of the sidewalk on Spring Street in Jay to the Jay Schools between Alabama Street, Escambia Street and School Street. Sidewalks already exist on Spring Street from Commerce Street southward for 2,000 feet. The trail would extend about 3,600 feet to the schools.
  • Continue the sidewalk on the south side of Highway 4 from Jay City Hall to the western town boundary. A sidewalk has been completed on the south side of Highway 4 from City Hall to Beck Avenue, funding through the Transportation Enhancement Program.
  • Resurface Munson Highway from Highway 4 to the Alabama state line.
