State Road 452 Seminole Connector (formerly 417 Sanford Airport Connector)
Description
A proposed $200 million, 45-mph toll connector between SR 417 and Red Cleveland/East Lake Mary boulevards with direct airport access, targeted to open around 2031-2032. The county is asking Sanford and three other cities for gas tax money to close a $25 million gap.
Impact summary
It would cut congestion on East Lake Mary Boulevard by diverting airport and regional traffic, with modeled intersection improvements of 48-78%, but cuts through wetlands, eagle nest habitat, and at least one home.
