July 13, 2023 – Flagler County officials are advising residents that the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) is to hold a public meeting at 5:30 p.m. July 20 (Tuesday) about the resurfacing project plans for State Road A1A from South 8th Street to North 18th Street in Flagler Beach.
The purpose of the public meeting is to provide project details and receive community feedback about this project, which is intended to extend the life of the roadway by resurfacing the existing pavement while providing operational and safety improvements.
“There are number of beachside projects in the works, and we want to make sure residents know about the opportunity to learn about the details directly from FDOT,” said Flagler County Administrator Heidi Petito. “Also, this gives our residents a voice by allowing them to provide their input.”
