Traffic Volumes – Existing and Future Conditions Existing and Future Volume Ranges Roadway Existing Future Belle Terre Blvd 3,900 to 7,200 7,100 to 13,000 Belle Terre Pkwy 24,000 to 28,000 31,000 to 36,000

Future Conditions – No Build (No Improvements) The following intersections will perform at an unacceptable LOS at SR 100 (AM and PM) at Eastwood Dr./Market Ave (AM and PM) at Easthampton Blvd/Central Ave (PM) at Royal Palms Pkwy (AM and PM) at Point Pleasant Dr. (PM) at Ponce DeLeon Dr. (PM) at Pine Grove Dr. (AM and PM) at Whippoorwill Dr. (AM and PM) at Pritchard Dr. (AM and PM) at Parkview Dr. (N) (AM and PM)

Future Conditions – Build (Improvements) Future improvements provide the following benefits: Address LOS deficiencies Improve operations Improve safety on the corridor for motorists, pedestrians, and bicyclists

Future Conditions – Build (Improvements) Right Turn Lane Improvements At SR 100 – Northbound At Easthampton Blvd/Central Ave – Eastbound At Royal Palms Pkwy – Westbound, Northbound & Southbound At Point Pleasant Dr. – Northbound At Ponce DeLeon Dr. – Northbound At Pine Grove Dr. – Northbound At Whippoorwill Dr. – Southbound At Pritchard Dr. – Northbound Left Turn Lane Improvements At SR 100 – Eastbound

Future Conditions – Build (Improvements) Median Restrictions at Pine Grove Drive - Eliminate WB left turn movement from Pine Grove Dr. Pedestrian Improvements at Whiteview Pkwy – New marked crosswalk across the northside of the intersection to include pedestrian signals Signal Improvements Optimize Signal Timings at Eastwood Dr./Market Ave – Need Warrant Study for potential traffic signal

Future Conditions – Build (Improvements) Signage Improvements - Pedestrian-Bicyclist Safety Unsignalized Intersections Signalized Intersections

Future Conditions – Build (Improvements) Signage Improvements – Motorist Assistance

Improvement Priorities Install Pedestrian/Bicyclist Signage along the entire corridor Traffic Signal Optimization At Whiteview Pkwy New marked crosswalk across the northside of the intersection to include pedestrian signals At Pine Grove Dr Add Northbound Right Turn Lane Median Restriction - Eliminate westbound Left Turn from Pine Grove Dr. At Royal Palms Pkwy Add NB, SB and WB Right Turn Lanes At Easthampton Blvd/Central Ave Add EB Right Turn Lane

Improvement Priorities At Whippoorwill Drive Add SB Right Turn Lane At Point Pleasant Dr Add NB Right Turn Lane At Ponce DeLeon Dr At Pritchard Drive At SR 100 Add NB Right Turn Lane (Transportation Impact Fee Funded) Add EB Left Turn Lane (FDOT funding) At Eastwood Dr/Market Ave Signalize

Next Steps Include proposed improvements into the 5-year and 10-year Capital Improvement Plan
