Representatives from Team Hardee and the Hardee County Sheriff’s Office recently met with Florida Department of Transportation District One staff at the new traffic signal at the intersection of U.S. 17 and S.R. 62.
The group reviewed the completed improvements, discussed traffic operations and shared local concerns regarding safety at this busy intersection.
A key outcome of the meeting was FDOT’s plan to conduct a speed study once the project is fully completed and operations and maintenance have been transferred to Hardee County. The study will evaluate permanently lowering the posted speed limit at the intersection.
We appreciate FDOT District One, Interim Secretary Jamie Driggers and the representatives who visited Hardee County to hear directly from our local team. We will continue working with FDOT and the Sheriff’s Office to support safer travel for our residents and visitors.
Special thank you to Lori Albritton, Director of Transportation Support; Kristen Etheridge, CPM District Permits Administrator; Theresa Chestnut, Community Traffic Safety Program Coordinator.
We encourage everyone to continue safe driving!
