SR 68 / Orange Avenue Resurfacing Project in Fort Pierce Underway
CWR Contracting has begun construction on the SR 68 / Orange Avenue Resurfacing project in Fort Pierce. This nearly 2-mile project is an important step in enhancing local infrastructure, and the team is excited to be underway.
The scope includes a range of improvements designed to enhance safety and accessibility. Crews will mill and resurface the existing roadway to deliver a smoother, safer driving experience. New bicycle share-lane markings will accommodate cyclists and promote safer sharing of the road. Pedestrian curb ramps will be reconstructed to improve accessibility, and upgraded lighting at vehicle and pedestrian signalized intersections will improve visibility during night hours.
The project is expected to be completed by summer 2025. During construction, the CWR team will work closely with local schools, neighborhoods, and community agencies to uphold safety standards and minimize impact on the public. Open communication is a priority throughout the project.
CWR appreciates the patience and understanding of the Fort Pierce community as this significant project gets underway. Contributing to reliable infrastructure that keeps Florida connected and thriving is an honor, and the team is committed to delivering a finished product that benefits the entire community for years to come.
