FDOT pedestrian crossing and turn lane on Fisk
Summary
Once Fiske Boulevard construction wraps up, drivers won't be able to make a left turn at the main intersection — you'll have to go around via Barbara Jenkins. A FDOT representative will explain the new pedestrian crossing at the September 21 meeting, and the board wants churches and affected homeowners notified with flyers and postcards since the change will catch a lot of people off guard.

Pedestrians get a safer crossing instead of darting across near the Dollar Tree.
Drivers who relied on left turns face longer, less convenient routes.

Anita Gibson pressed for updates on the long-closed access at Stone Street and Fifth Boulevard. Staff reported FDOT estimates completion in fall 2026, with lane closures on Fisk July 20-24, and said eight permits are active for new homes in the Wawa area.

An FDOT project will add a flashing pedestrian crossing near the route kids take to the park, drop the speed limit from 40 to 35 mph, and extend the backed-up turn lane at Fisk and 520 — expected done by early fall.
