State Road 426 / County Road 419 Project

The SR 426 / CR 419 roadway widening project will ultimately connect the existing 4-lane roadway at Pine Avenue (near Oviedo High School) to the 4-lane segment of CR 419 at Lockwood Boulevard.

The overall estimated project cost is approximately $83 million dollars and is divided into three phases. Phase 1 addressed downtown (CR 426 / SR 434) intersection improvements. Phases 2 and 3 will make the connection to the west at Pine Avenue and to the east at Lockwood Boulevard. Federal, State, County, and City funds are being combined to accomplish this task.
