Public Meeting Tonight On Nine Mile Widening From Beulah To Hwy 29

September 8, 2016

The Florida Department of Transportation will hold a public information meeting this evening work beginning on Nine Mile Road between Beulah Road and Highway 29 in Escambia County. The meeting will be held  at Plainview Baptist Church, 1101 West Nine Mile Road, from 5:30-6:30 p.m.

“We’ve been working for 20 years to fix the traffic and gridlock in the Beulah community, as well as bring good-paying jobs and growth, and these improvements will ensure our success,” District 1 Commissioner Wilson Robertson said. “The core growth and the traffic going to Navy Federal and the new OLF-8 Park is going to be well accommodated by widening Nine Mile Road to four lanes.”

The $46 million project includes widening Nine Mile Road between Beulah Road and U.S. 29 from two to four travel lanes. Additional improvements include constructing a new bridge over Eleven Mile Creek, new sidewalks and stormwater retention ponds, signalization improvements and drainage enhancements. FDOT representatives will be available to provide information about planned construction work and potential impacts.

Work is scheduled to begin in September and will require nighttime lane closures and speed limit reductions on Nine Mile Road. Weather permitting, the entire corridor is slated for completion in early 2019.
