Project Details

SR 292 PD&E Study - Blue Angel Parkway to Fairfield Drive and Fairfield Drive to Navy Boulevard.

This study also includes FPID# 218493-3 Fairfield Drive to Navy Boulevard, 1.8 miles.

The project’s need is to improve capacity, operational, and multi-modal issues on SR 292 (Sorrento Road/Gulf Beach Highway) in Escambia County. This project will implement an alternative that will “best fit” on the existing alignment and provide multi-modal solutions. This roadway is currently operating at an unacceptable Level of Service (LOS), LOS F and has a crash rate higher than the statewide average for similar type roadways.

The study will investigate the following: • Widening the existing corridor from two (2) to four (4) lanes. • Enhancing multi-modal features such as bicycle lanes, sidewalks, and transit features. • Increasing roadway safety. • Minimizing environmental and social impacts due to the above improvements.
