The Project Development and Environment (PD&E) Study for Cove Road focuses on evaluating the proposed widening of the corridor from 76/Kanner Highway to SR 5/US-1. This initiative aims to reduce traffic congestion, minimize delays, and improve multimodal mobility and safety for the Martin County community.
The study explores viable alternatives and alignments to expand Cove Road from two to four lanes while incorporating multimodal features such as sidewalks and a shared-use path. Additionally, it addresses upgrades to existing signalized intersections and identifies opportunities for new signalization where necessary. The project also evaluates the integration of new drainage systems and enhancements to signing and pavement markings to ensure the corridor meets the community’s evolving needs.
This comprehensive approach underscores a commitment to creating a safer, more efficient transportation network in Martin County.
