Intersection Improvements at State Road 247 and County Road 240
Overview

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) and Columbia County propose the following safety intersection improvements:

  • Construct a Hybrid Offset-T intersection; Geometric realignment of CR 240 at the intersection to improve the existing skewed angle approach to 90 degrees
  • Install new roadway lighting at the intersection
  • Install new signing and pavement markings; Install ground mounted “STOP” signs with flashing red beacons on CR 240 approaches; Install “STOP AHEAD” warning signs on CR 240 approaches; Install “WRONG WAY” signage and directional arrow pavement markings
  • Enhance the existing overhead flashing beacon; Retain the existing yellow flashing overhead beacons for SR 247 approaches and add retroreflective backplates to the signal heads; Remove red flashing overhead beacons for CR 240 approaches due to new alignment of CR 240
