Okaloosa County, FL: State Road 85/123 Interchange Flyover Project

Posted by Infra on Thursday, June 7th, 2012

The S.R. 85/123 interchange improvement project includes widening S.R. 85 to six lanes between General Bond Boulevard and the Northwest Florida Regional Airport. In addition, a flyover ramp is being constructed on S.R. 85 northbound to allow traffic to connect seamlessly with S.R. 123. The new ramp will alleviate delays as northbound drivers attempt to turn left onto S.R. 123.

Access to the Northwest Florida Regional Airport is being improved as part of this project. The S.R. 85 north and southbound travel lanes are being elevated to pass above the northernmost entrance to the airport. Service roads beneath the new overpass will connect the improved airport entrance to/from both S.R. 85 and 123.
Work began in August 2009 and is scheduled for completion in the fall of 2012.

To minimize traffic impacts, lane closures are being restricted during peak travel times. No lane closures are permitted on S.R. 85 northbound between 7 a.m. and 8:30 p.m., or on S.R. 85 southbound between 6 a.m. and 7:30 p.m. – MyFDOT on YouTube

Dear Friends,

 

It is encouraging to finally see clear signs of federal action to support a comprehensive US infrastructure investment plan.

 

Now more than ever, our advocacy is needed to keep stakeholders informed and connected, and to hold politicians to their promises to finally fix our nation’s ailing infrastructure.

 

We have already engaged nearly 280,000 users, and hoping to add many more as interest continues to grow.

 

We require your support in order to rise to this occasion, to make the most of this opportunity. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation to InfrastructureUSA.org.
