Residents can expect to see construction-related activity beginning the week of March 18 for the first of the two buried seawall projects along State Road A1A in Flagler and Volusia counties. The contractor plans to place construction-related signage in Flagler County from just north of South Central Avenue in Flagler Beach and extend south to just below the Volusia/Flagler county line.

Following the signage placement, it is anticipated the construction team will begin working on Thursday, March 21, to shift the travel lanes on S.R. A1A a few feet to the west within the existing asphalt. The traffic shift will allow two-way traffic to continue during the construction of the buried seawall. This work will require a single-lane closure with flagging operations from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. that day.

During construction, the Florida Department of Transportation will send out regular updates. Information will also be available on the project webpage at www.cflroads.com/project/452444-1. If you have questions, you can contact Community Outreach Coordinator Amber Mullins at [email protected].
