Project Description:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The existing one-lane wooden bridge is structurally deficient and a new two-lane bridge needs to be constructed in order to provide a safe roadway access to the Avon Park Bombing Range and Avon Park Correctional Facility.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Measurable Outcome Anticipated:

 

 

 

 

 

A new two-lane bridge constructed so commerce is protected and so safer roadway access across CR 64 and Arbuckle Creek is provided to a State and Federal facility.
