Project Description:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

CR 769 (Kings Hwy) from SR 72 to Desoto/Charlotte County line widening to 24' roadway with additional 4' paved and 4' unpaved emergency shoulder lanes. Reconstruct bridge to current standards over Horse Creek.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Measurable Outcome Anticipated:

 

 

 

 

 

Safer route of mobility to travelers, as well as a safe emergency evacuation route. Kings Hwy has a high fatality rate due to drivers going off the narrow road and over-correcting.
