The CRA has planned to improve 1st Avenue South between 8th St. S. and Goodlette-Frank Rd. since the FY2016 budget. The FY2021 budget includes $800,000 for design. The intent of the project is to improve vehicular and pedestrian connectivity for east - west travel across US41 and Goodlette-Frank Road. The design will evaluate needs (if any) for signalized intersections, landscaping/irrigation, sidewalks, parking, above and below grade utilities, and bicycle, pedestrian and vehicular circulation. Until the project design is complete, the FY21 construction estimate is at $6.2 million. In addition, some funding for the project will come from the Utilities fund (to be determined) and Streets fund ($75,000). The project schedule has been moved to FY2023 to provide the time to complete design, analyze cost estimates and prioritize this project along with other initiatives the CRA Board may wish to undertake. As of October 3, 2022, this project is included in the City of City of Naples FY 2023-2027. Information regarding design firm and general contractor selection timeline has not been released.
