The Florida Department of Transportation will begin work in late March on two projects along SR 15/US 441/SR 700/Parrott Avenue in Okeechobee County. Project improvements consist of milling and resurfacing, base work, drainage improvements, curb and gutters, sidewalk, signing and pavement markings, and other incidental construction activities in the approximately .5-mile project area. Drainage improvements consist of shoulder and ditch regrading, slope improvements, drainage pipe installation, and stormwater pond creation.
