Seminole County, FL — The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) will cut the ribbon to mark the opening of the final section of the Wekiva Parkway.
The opening signifies the final connection between S.R. 429, Interstate 4 and S.R. 417 in the Central Florida beltway in Seminole County.
FDOT said it will increase traffic efficiency while also helping to protect the natural resources in the Wekiva River Basin.
WDBO Traffic Anchor, Ed Torrence said:
“Instead of exiting I-4 at State Road 46 and having to deal with the traffic signals on (State Road) 46, drivers will now have direct access to State Road 429 from I-4. This will help to alleviate congestion on State Road 46 as well.”
Final section of the Wekiva Parkway:
The ribbon cutting ceremony will be held on the S.R. 429 bridge over International Parkway on Friday, January 26th, at 11:30am.
