Drivers accessing I-95 through downtown Jacksonville are not out of the woods yet when it comes to battling road construction.
As the Overland Expressway and Interstate 95/J. Turner Butler flyover projects wind down toward completion in late spring and summer of this year, the Florida Department of Transportation plans to begin another major road project this spring, which will improve the Fuller Warren Bridge and exits near Riverside, causing congestion for I-95 drivers heading through the city.
However, taking a long view, many residents on both sides of the river will cheer the construction of a shared-use path dedicated for pedestrians and bicyclists that will straddle the river adjacent to the bridge, providing a safe connection between the historic communities on either side of the St. Johns.

I wish the pedestrian bicycle path could be put on the other side of the bridge
That would have been nice and an instant attraction with the skyline view to the north. Unfortunately, things get pretty tight on the north side of the bridge near Baptist.
