This section of SR 9 experiences severe congestion and operational problems due to large traffic volumes due rapid commercial and residential development. This section also falls within a High Accident Corridor (HAC) as identified in the 2000 Safety Management System. To address capacity needs, enhance traffic operations and reduce the number and severity of accidents, SR 9 will be widened from two lanes to four lanes, plus a raised median. Sidewalks will be constructed in selected locations on both sides of SR 9. Other minor work will be performed as needed. This is Stage 3 of the overall work on this corridor.
