Franjo Road Roadway Improvement Project
The Town of Cutler Bay has been approved for funding for the improvement of Franjo Road from Old Cutler Road to SW 184 Street by the Miami-Dade Transportation Planning Organization (TPO) Governing Board during their September 26, 2019, meeting.
This "Complete Street" Joint Participation Agreement (JPA) project has been approved for $8,946,758 in funding that will see the improving of Franjo Road from Old Cutler Road to SW 184 Street from two to three lanes that will include a center turn lane, curb and gutters, shared use path, storm drainage system, pavement markings and signage, signalization, and roadway lighting. The project will mirror the improvements made on Old Cutler Road and Caribbean Boulevard—two Complete Streets project the Town finished in 2014 and 2017, respectively.
The Franjo Roadway Improvement Project was identified through the feedback the Town received at various public involvement meetings held while it was developing its Complete Streets Master Plan, which was funded by a TPO Grant.
