Project Description: |
The City of Deerfield Beach in the last five years has undertaken extensive improvements to improve public access and pedestrian safety along the ocean front. The proposed project will improve storm drainage, traffic flow, pedestrian, safety, and bicycle travel along the only South Florida beach that has a nearly unobstructed view corridor of access to the public beach. The plan will include brick paver sidewalk, bicycle lane, lighting and landscaping that complements existing work done in the CRA directly to the north. |
