The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) has proposed converting the existing median on Blanding Boulevard (State Road 21) north of 105th Street into a directional median to accommodate a proposed Dollar General location.

FDOT has proposed converting the current open access median on Blanding Boulevard (State Road 21) in front of Boathouse Discount Marine into a directional median with two turn lanes. The southbound and northbound turn lanes are designed to provide access to the proposed store as well as maintain left-in access for both directions of Blanding Boulevard (State Road 21).

Florida Department of Transportation is seeking input from property owners who may be impacted by the proposed changes. If you would like to comment on the proposed median modification, please send your comments to Maintenance Program Engineer Permits Manager Julian McKinley, P.E. at (904) 360-5458, via email at julian.mckinley@dot.state.fl.us or by mail at 2198 Edison Avenue, Jacksonville, Florida 32204. Public comments will be accepted on the proposed modification through October 15, 2021.
