BROWARD COUNTY, FL - The Highway and Bridge Maintenance Division will be performing sidewalk improvements, installing ADA-accessible
pedestrian ramps, resurfacing and adding bike lanes on Lyons Road from
Sawgrass Expressway to Hillsboro Canal/County Line in Coconut Creek. Funded by the Penny for Transportation surtax, work begins
January 16 and is expected to conclude in October 2024, provided there are no unforeseen
conditions and/or weather delays.
While
sidewalk improvements are being made, a single lane of vehicular traffic will
be closed during off-peak hours. Access to some businesses' driveways and
sidewalks may be affected for a few days.
During
the resurfacing operations, one lane of traffic in each direction of Lyons Road
will be open and access to businesses and driveways will be
maintained.
Variable message signs will be posted to warn affected
motorists and pedestrians.
