At the January 14, 2019 City Commission meeting, the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) presented the SR 5/US-1 at SW Joan Jefferson Way Planning Study. The purpose of the study was to analyze existing traffic volumes and patterns, as well as, consider various build alternatives for the intersection. Four alternatives were developed for consideration and the pros and cons of each were presented at the January 14th meeting. In February 2019, the FDOT completed the Conceptual Development Report for the SR 5/US-1 at SW Joan Jefferson Way Planning Study.

Build Alternative 1 in FDOT's SR 5/US-1 at SW Joan Jefferson Way Planning Study includes the following improvements:

• Twice per cycle left turn operations for southbound left-turn at SR 5/US-1 and SW Joan Jefferson Way
• Queue detection camera for SW Joan Jefferson Way eastbound traffic
• Train activated flashing beacons at the Sailfish Circle roundabout
• Extend the existing southbound left-turn storage from 300' to 450' along SR 5/US-1 at SW Joan Jefferson Way intersection
• Replace the signal mast arms and provide backplates at the intersection of SR 5/US-1 and SW Joan Jefferson Way
• Replace the signal mast arms and provide backplates at the intersection of SR 5/US-1 and SW Ocean Boulevard
• Extend the southbound left-turn storage from 140' to 270' along SR 5/US-1 at SW Ocean Boulevard intersection
• Modify the Sailfish Circle roundabout into a single lane roundabout with truck apron

City Staff is recommending the above listed improvements for Build Alternative 1 EXCEPT for the improvement modifying the Sailfish Circle roundabout into a single lane roundabout with truck apron.
