102nd Avenue Roadway Improvements Project Information Meeting

This was a public information meeting held by Pinellas County on May 23, 2025, regarding the 102nd Avenue Roadway Improvements Project. The project involves roadway widening from two lanes to a three-lane configuration with a center two-way left turn lane, addition of sidewalks, traffic signal upgrades, and construction of a two-lane roundabout at the Ridge Road intersection. The meeting covered project background, design details, safety and traffic flow improvements, drainage considerations, and construction scheduling. The project budget is approximately $15.7 million, funded by Penny for Pinellas. Extensive public input was solicited and addressed, including concerns about traffic flow, pedestrian safety, drainage impacts, mailbox relocation, and signal timing. The design is currently at 60% completion, with construction anticipated to begin in early 2027 and finish by early 2028. The county emphasized ongoing community engagement and offered opportunities for one-on-one meetings with project staff.
