As a subconsultant, Colliers Engineering & Design provided Project Development and Environment (PD&E) Services for SR 869/SW10 Street from Powerline Road to West of Military Trail, an east-west principal arterial that connects three limited access facilities: Florida’s Turnpike, Sawgrass Expressway, and I-95.

SW 10th Street from Florida’s Turnpike to I-95 is a missing link in the existing and planned regional express lanes network. Traffic volumes along SW 10th Street from Sawgrass Expressway to I-95 have consistently increased over the past 15 years and are projected to grow. Existing traffic levels exceed the capacity of the roadway during peak times therefore this study evaluates two facilities within the corridor, the limited access and local connections.

One roadway facility addresses regional network connectivity needs and provides a connection between the Turnpike, Sawgrass Expressway and I-95. Improving this linkage will improve safety, mobility and contribute to the economic vitality of Southeast Florida. The other roadway facility will be a local facility to address the community and business needs in the corridor. This facility will be a lower-speed roadway inclusive of bicycle lanes, sidewalks and additional aesthetic features. Together these facilities will help improve access, safety and operational issues, while encouraging future transit in the corridor.
