Work is being carried out on the Wekiva Parkway project in Florida at present. Pile driving for the bridge at Yothers Road has been carried out, although care has been taken to minimise the disturbance to the surrounding area. The work forms part of the Central Florida Expressway Authority’s US$56 million project to construct the Wekiva Parkway from where the SR 429 currently ends at the Connector Road to just north of Ponkan Road. This project is one of five parkway sections being built by CFX, totalling 16km and costing over $270 million to build. Once completed, the 40km parkway will complete Central Florida’s beltway, while helping to protect natural resources surrounding the Wekiva River.
