Expect Airport Boulevard Road Construction Through Spring

January 3, 2022

Construction activities are scheduled to begin this week on Airport Boulevard  in Escambia County.

Improvements include milling and resurfacing the roadway from west of North Palafox Street to Davis Highway, installing new pedestrian signals and video detection, upgrading curb ramps at intersections and side streets, and repairing various areas of damaged sidewalk.

Drivers should anticipate nighttime lane closures between the hours of 9 p.m. and 6 a.m. The 1.4-mile project is estimated for completion in the spring of 2022.

All activities are weather-dependent and may be delayed or rescheduled in the event of inclement weather.

    Dang, I don’t recall seeing anyone ever walking on that section of Airport. Who dreams this stuff up ??? County residents have no say so BUT… the overpass sounds like a pretty good idea.

    Agree, What Airport needs is an overpass over the railroad track.
