The county commission agreed this week to
accept another half million dollars from the Florida Department of
Transportation to help cover the costs of widening and resurfacing Bluff Road
in Apalachicola.
Initially DOT provided about 1.8 million dollars for the work
which would extend over 4 and a half miles from Highway 98 to Pine Log Road.
Three
companies bid on the job, the lowest bid came in at over 2.2 million dollars
which means the county didn’t have enough to pay for the entire project.
The Department
of Transportation has now agreed to provide an additional 529 thousand dollars
so that the project can be developed as designed.
Work on the project should begin within 90 days.
