Franklin county gets first look at DOT 5 year work plan

Franklin County Commissioners got a look at the Department of Transportation 5 year work plan on Tuesday.
The work plan spells out the projects that the Department will have already started or hopes to have funded between 2013 and 2018.
There are 27 projects planned for Franklin county over the next 5 years ranging from road resurfacing projects to work at the Apalachicola airport.
Some local projects on the list include resurfacing Highway 98 in Apalachicola from 12th street to the Apalachicola Bridge which should happen in 2015.
There is also a resurfacing project for Highway 98 between the Gulf county line and Tilton Road which is planned for 2016.
A number of projects are planned for 2014 including the widening and resurfacing of south Bayshore drive in Eastpoint and Bluff Road in Apalachicola.
DOT also plans to rebuild Oak street in Lanark Village next year.
Commissioners said they were happy to see projects planned for Franklin county especially over the next year, but were concerned that there weren’t very many project scheduled for three or four years in the future.

You can see the full 5 year work plan for any county in Florida at the Department of Transportation website.
