July 2021 Update
As of July 19, construction is currently on schedule for Phase One of the City of Tallahassee’s Betton Road Traffic and Pedestrian Enhancement Project, and soon, Phase Two will begin ahead of schedule. This will extend the active construction zone along Betton Road from Thomasville Road to Lee Avenue. Betton Road remains closed to all but local traffic from Thomasville to Centerville roads. Thank you for your patience and cooperation as this project moves forward.
To improve traffic flow and enhance safety, the City will extend closures along nearby streets to all but local traffic starting by July 23 (see map below). Updated closures are as follows:
- Mitchell Avenue and Marion Avenue from Seventh Avenue to Betton Road
- Crestview Avenue from Seventh Avenue to Marion Avenue
- Trescott Drive from Blythe Street to Betton Road
- W. Randolph Circle from Lee Avenue to Betton Road
Service technicians (lawncare providers, plumbers, etc.) should speak with residents regarding parking guidelines, so as to not block travel lanes or access to homes.
Updates will be provided as work progresses.
