This is a design/build/finance project for the Florida Department of Transportation District VI. The work consists of the addition of one general use lane in each direction; auxiliary lanes between all interchanges; interchange improvements and, operational and safety improvements along the SR826 mainline and ramps. The interchanges that will be improved with this project are the SR826 interchanges at SW 56 Street/Miller Drive, SR874/Don Shula Expressway and SW 40 Street/Bird Road. Four of the bridges are over the CSX railroad and are comprised of steel girders. The other interchange bridges are designed with concrete beams (AASHTO Type IV, Mod. Bulb Tee, Florida I Beams). This project also includes a new pedestrian bridge, new drainage, lighting, landscaping improvements, ITS and signalization improvements. |
