The City of Pensacola is considering accepting ownership of a right-of-way from the Florida Department of Transportation. This land was previously used for highway purposes and is no longer needed by the state. The city plans to use this property to install an infrared sensor-based traffic detection and warning system. This system is intended to improve traffic flow and public safety near the 17th Avenue Graffiti Bridge. This item is currently under review by the City Council. If approved, the project would involve site preparation for the sensor system, installation of the detection and warning technology, and potentially related electrical and communication work. Contractors specializing in traffic control systems, electrical work, and site preparation could find opportunities. Early engagement is advised as plans and permits are still being finalized.
