Franklin County has officially approved grant applications for two Transportation Alternatives projects the County is applying for this year

Franklin County has officially approved grant applications for two Transportation Alternatives projects the County is applying for this year.

 

The projects include a portion of the Multi-Use Path Project at Alligator Point which would add 5’ bike lanes onto the shoulders of the road along Alligator Drive from the Marina to the S-Curve.

 

The second project is the construction of a multi-use path along River Road in Carrabelle from the junction of River Road and Mill Road to U.S. Highway 98.

 

The Franklin County Commission ranked the Alligator Point multi-use path improvements first, since that project has the highest chance of being funded.

 

The River Road multi-use path is second on the priority list.

 

The Transportation Alternatives Program funds small-scale transportation projects such as pedestrian and bicycle facilities, recreational trails, and safe routes to school projects.

 

In 2021 it provided funding for a new sidewalk along Otter Slide Road and Avenue A in Eastpoint which is expected to be complete in 2027.
