MARTIN COUNTY — The Florida Department of Transportation’s Florida’s Turnpike Enterprise is studying plans for a new system-to-system interchange connecting Florida’s Turnpike (SR 91) and Interstate 95 (SR 9) near SE Bridge Road in Martin County.
The project, now in the Project Development and Environment (PD&E) Study phase, aims to improve connectivity, safety and regional mobility between two of South Florida’s busiest highways.
“The study evaluates alternatives, including a No Build option, to improve connectivity, safety, and emergency response,” said Fiorella Teodista, communications outreach coordinator with Florida’s Turnpike Enterprise. “Currently, drivers use local roads such as SR 714/SW Martin Highway and SR 706/Indiantown Road to travel between the Turnpike and I-95. This project is designed to enhance traffic flow, improve safety, and support regional mobility for drivers, residents, and businesses across South Florida.”…
