FDOT began constructing a bicycle/pedestrian trail on Heckscher Drive

Jacksonville – Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) has begun construction for a bicycle/pedestrian trail on Heckscher Drive (State Road A1A Timucuan Trail) from just north of Shad Creek Bridge to just south of Haulover Creek Bridge.



This project is part of the overall trail system along Heckscher Drive.  It builds the trail, provides drainage improvements, signage upgrades and other construction determined necessary during the project.  The 10 foot wide asphalt trail is approximately 4,000 feet long and is being constructed on the east (river) side of the roadway.



Lane closures are not allowed Monday through Friday from 6:30 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. and from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m.  The majority of the work will be on the roadway shoulders requiring their closures.  Some lane closures may be necessary but they will be minimized.



FDOT hired American Lighting and Signalization, Inc., to build the project for $553 thousand.  Completion is scheduled in summer 2015.



For more information regarding this and other FDOT projects around the Northeast Florida area please contact Ron Tittle at 904-360-5457, ron.tittle@dot.state.fl.us and visit http://nflroads.com. Follow FDOT on Twitter @MyFDOT_NEFL or http://twitter.com/MyFDOT_NEFL and http://facebook.com/MyFDOTNEFL for the latest updates.

Florida, gathered by the Federal Writers Project during the 1930's. The collection relates the ex-slaves' hardships

their strength to survive and make contributions to American culture. Palmetto Country relates African American

lore gathered by Kennedy, anthropologist Zora Neale Hurston, and folklorist Alan Lomax.

Good Morning,



Northwest Jacksonville CDC (NJCDC) is having a community food giveaway on Thursday, April 2nd from 9:00 am until 1:00pm.

This is an excellent opportunity to obtain community service volunteer hours for high school and middle school students.  Duval County Public Schools is observing a teachers planning day for the public school system on the 2nd.  We are asking all of the volunteers to report to NJCDC at 7:00 am to assist with unloading and sorting the food prior to the giveaway.

Did you know? With the recent interest in bridge inspections and ratings, the link below has some information on the bridge inspection program from Ross Hammock from Florida Department of Transportation's Northeast District Bridge Maintenance.  Thanks Ross for your help.

Also, to reiterate the status of the Fuller Warren Bridge in Jacksonville, it is NOT structurally deficient. The latest routine inspection for the Fuller Warren Bridge was performed on February 11, 2015.

Some bridges may be reflected by inspections as having a structure deficiency but it does not mean or imply the bridge is unsafe.
