Building the Future – Belle Terre Parkway Improvements

Friday December, 09 2022

Rehabilitation to the stormwater culvert pipes that run parallel under the southbound lane of Belle Terre Parkway is needed to stabilize the road and prevent more dips from forming. Construction work will begin on Monday, December 12, 2022. 

Residents and visitors that travel down Belle Terre Parkway in Palm Coast near Indian Trails Middle School and Belle Terre Elementary School have likely encountered some dips in the road. The time has come to remedy those roadways and return them to safe traveling conditions. In order to do so, construction work will begin on Monday, December 12, 2022. 

Rehabilitation to the stormwater culvert pipes that run parallel under the southbound lane of Belle Terre Parkway is needed to stabilize the road and prevent more dips from forming. This construction project will require daily lane closures throughout the duration of the project. The section of lane closure will change as the project progresses from the northern project boundary to the southern.  Proper signage will be displayed in order to inform drivers of any changes in traffic flow. Pedestrian walkways will not be affected during this project.

Contractors will be working Monday through Friday during the hours of 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. The project’s estimated completion date is March 30, 2023. 

The City of Palm Coast recognizes this as a widely utilized roadway near two public schools. All efforts will be made to keep traffic flowing as much as possible. The project begins just before Flagler Schools break for the winter holidays in an effort to complete a portion of the project during the students’ and faculty’s time off. 

While large improvement projects such as this can cause interruptions to the schedules of citizens, it is imperative to keep the roadways in safe working order. This specific type of project cannot be completed during the summer months due to the extreme heat within the stormwater pipes beneath the road and unsafe working conditions. 

The City of Palm Coast appreciates the patience and cooperation of residents and motorists during this time. For more information, contact customer service at customer-service@palmoastgov.com or 386-986-2360. A request can also be submitted through palmcoast.gov/connect.
