Description:
The project involves extending Poinciana Parkway (SR 538) from County Road 532 (CR 532) to the Interstate 4 (I-4)/State Road 429 (SR 429) interchange, modifying the I-4/SR 429 interchange to accommodate the Poinciana Parkway (SR 538) connection, and increasing capacity of the segment of SR 429 from the I-4/SR 429 interchange to the SR 429/Sinclair Road interchange. The total project length is 4.97 miles.
Poinciana Parkway (SR 538) is a section of a future, six lane limited access toll facility, often referred to as the "Southern Beltway". The Southern Beltway would provide a regional, limited access facility that connects I-4 on the west to the interchange of Boggy Creek Road/SR 417 on the east, a distance of approximately 50 miles. The westernmost portion of the Southern Beltway is referred to as the Poinciana Parkway.
The existing interchange at I-4 and SR 429 is a full access interchange with no connection to the south. Currently, I-4 provides six lanes (three lanes in each direction) and SR 429 provides four lanes (two lanes in each direction).
The study area, which includes portions of unincorporated Osceola and Polk Counties, is comprised of residential land uses, the 2,226-acre Reunion Resort, and conservation lands under the jurisdiction of the Reedy Creek Improvement District (RCID). Although there are no municipalities in the study area, the project includes the unincorporated areas of Loughman and Poinciana. There are also numerous undeveloped parcels with residential and planned development future land use designations, wetland systems, and overhead and underground utility corridors. CR 532 follows the county line between Polk County on the south and Osceola County on the north.
