Project Description:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This project creates a gateway to the State Capitol complex by revitalizing Gaines Street from Lake Bradford (State Road 371) to Apalachee Parkway (State Raod 20).

This project will also provide system preservation by providing additional transportation opportunities-bicycle, pedestrian, transit and auto-on an existing corridor which links a larger system.
