A Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) to install a new traffic signal on US 98 at Lyle Parkway begins in early October 2025. The signal project also includes drainage improvements, widening the turn radius at the northwest and southeast corners, adding a raised concrete pedestrian pad on the northwest corner and adding intersection lighting with high visibility crosswalk striping and pedestrian signals.

The project goes with another project to resurface US 98 from Bartow to Lakeland (452617-1). This much needed project includes removing the old asphalt, replacing it with new asphalt, repaving the side street aprons and installing new signal sensors at the signalized intersections. Motorists can expect nighttime/overnight lane closures between 6:30 p.m. and 5:30 a.m.
