The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) will begin milling and resurfacing US 301(SR 683) from Desoto Road to University Parkway in late 2025. In addition to resurfacing, crews will perform shoulder treatment and apply new signing and pavement markings. The project limits cover approximately .5 miles with an estimated cost of $1.1 million.

This project is one of three projects bundled under a single contract. While individual project schedules will vary, the combined contract begins in late August. FDOT will provide weekly RoadWatch Updates on each project.
