SR 16 from IGP to I-95 PDE Study
Overview

This Project Development and Environment (PD&E) Study involves a 5.9-mile segment of SR 16 from International Golf Parkway (IGP) to I-95 in St. Johns County, Florida. Within the study limits, SR 16 is functionally classified as a rural principal arterial-other. Between IGP and the St. Augustine Outlet Mall, approximately 5.1 miles, SR 16 is a two-lane undivided roadway with sporadic left turn lanes and no pedestrian or bicycle features. From the St. Augustine Outlet Mall to I-95, approximately 0.8 miles, SR 16 is a four-lane divided roadway with a sidewalk located on both sides of the road for approximately 0.5 miles, from the southern entrance of the St. Augustine Outlet Mall to I-95.

This study will evaluate widening the existing two-lane rural roadway to a four-lane divided urban roadway. In addition, multi-modal transportation improvements including continuous bicycle and pedestrian facilities will be evaluated. SR 16 has one existing bridge (Bridge number 780064) over Turnbull Creek, the structural integrity and functionality of this bridge will be evaluated.
