About
The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), District One replaced the CR 664 (County Line Road) Bridge over Peace River in Polk and Hardee Counties. This project is located 1.3 miles east of the Bowling Green city limits.
The bridge, which was constructed in 1958, was in need of replacement due to the poor condition of the substructure. The original bridge had two 12-foot travel lanes without shoulders and was replaced with a new bridge with two 12-foot travel lanes and 8-foot shoulders for safety. The bridge approaches were also resurfaced or reconstructed as needed and guardrail added. Additionally, a maintenance connection road was constructed on the north side of County Line Road west of the bridge. The new structure brings this facility up to current standards and significantly reduces maintenance.
The new bridge was opened to traffic on October 24, 2025.
Public Involvement
FDOT project personnel had a safety booth at the City of Bowling Green's Cinco De Mayo Event on May 4, 2024, where information was provided about the upcoming construction project. Now that construction has begun, stay up to date on the progress of the project by visiting this webpage.
