Title: Expressway Expansion on Steroids!
Post by: thelakelander on October 08, 2013, 05:01:50 PM
For those of you who believe projects like the Overland Bridge are massive.  Here's the before and after renderings of the SR 826/836 interchange in Miami:

That's pretty serious...btw isn't the I-295-95 interchange (near JIA) going to be massive too? I faintly recall hearing a FDOT guy say it was going to bigger than the I-295-95 interchange on the Southside.

I haven't seen any renderings but the Biz Journal says the estimated budget is $145 million. (http://www.bizjournals.com/jacksonville/news/2013/02/20/state-to-pay-191-million-for-two-more.html) For comparison, the final price tag for the I-95/I-10 interchange was $148 million.
