Flagler County advises that motorists who regularly use State Road 11 and County Road 304 can expect delays and detours for the next six months. The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) will begin roundabout construction at that intersection – also known as Cody’s Corner – on Monday, April 22.
“We want our residents to be aware of FDOT’s work in the county so they can plan appropriately for travel,” said County Administrator Heidi Petito. “We know this will affect traffic in Bunnell and the surrounding area.”
The FDOT construction operations will include the closure of the eastern side of County Road 304 at its intersection with State Road 11. This will necessitate a detour that will utilize U.S. 1 heading north to State Road 11 for access to the western portion of County Road 304.
During the construction, FDOT will install 3-way stop signs at the intersection of State Road 11 and County Rd 304. Rumble strips on the northbound and southbound approaches, as well as posted reduced speed limits are designed to help acclimate motorists to the new traffic pattern.
Additionally, State Road 11 will be resurfaced from the Volusia County border to U.S. 1 in Bunnell. Work will also include drainage and lighting upgrades, new signage, and pavement markings, as well as some small alignment shifts to encourage safer driving speeds.
