SR 13 Bridge at New Rose Creek Bridge Replacement
Overview

Public Hearing Video-July 2024:
July 2024 Rose Creek Bridge- Public Hearing Presentation

The project is located on SR 13 (San Jose Boulevard) in the City of Jacksonville parallel to the St. Johns River the existing bridge is a low-level, single-span bridge and has been classified as “Structurally Deficient” by the FDOT Bridge Management System. As a result, FDOT is conducting a Project Development & Environment Study (PD&E study) to evaluate alternatives to replace the existing structurally deficient bridge. Without any improvements, the bridge will continue to deteriorate, requiring weight restrictions and possibly closing the bridge to the public. Closing the bridge would require the 25,000 motorists who use the bridge daily to find alternative routes, resulting in increased travel times and congestion on nearby roadways.

Proposed Bridge Typical Section

The proposed typical section will match the existing typical section, containing four, 11 to 13.5-foot travel lanes, a 10.5-foot turn lane in the southbound direction, two 5-foot bicycle lanes, and two 5-foot sidewalks.
