How we work
Intro Title one
What is the goal of this project?
This streetscape project along Breakers Avenue between Riomar Street and Vistamar Street is a 2019 Commission Annual Action Plan (CAAP) initiative. The goal of this project is to create an iconic corridor that not only provides mobility but is also a safe, accessible, attractive, climate-resilient public space serving neighbors and visitors in Fort Lauderdale beach.
What are the proposed improvements?
The project is a partnership between the Transportation and Mobility Department and the Public Works Department. Proposed improvements include streetscape elements such as pedestrian lighting, trees, landscape, shared used street design, and underground water and sewer utility upgrades.
What progress has been made?
As of August 14, 2019:
The City allocated $2.9 million toward the Breakers Avenue Streetscape Improvements in fall 2018. An additional $2.1 million for water, sewer, and storm water infrastructure upgrade is proposed in the FY 2020 budget
The City's consultant team developed the corridor concept design though public outreach in July 2019.
The project's engineering design is expected to begin end of August 2019.
