Summary:Leslie discusses how the Krome Avenue project brings vital infrastructure improvements to western Miami-Dade community. The project included adding lanes and rehabilitating pavement along Krome Avenue from SW 312 Street/Campbell Drive to SW 296 Street and adding lanes and reconstructing along Krome Avenue from SW 296 Street to south of SW 232 Street. Krome Avenue is a heavily used north-south arterial and passes through a rural section of the county. The specific scope of work includes constructing a new road and reconstructing the existing roadway and select side streets; building a new shared-use path for cyclists and pedestrians; demolishing and building two new bridges with an articulated concrete block revetment system; constructing new access roads to the C-103 Canal; and improving the stormwater drainage system including the addition of French drains and canal outfalls; installing new street lighting, signalization, and an ITS fiber optic backbone.
