The Tourist Development Council in Sumter County is planning improvements at Beville's Corner and on 471 near the Fairgrounds entrance. The project aims to improve traffic flow by adding turn lanes. It also includes enhancing drainage with a new pond, increasing public parking, and adding EV charging stations under solar panels. Ticket boxes for multiple entries will also be installed to improve access. This project is currently planned and under review, indicating an early stage in the public process. The work will likely involve site clearing and grading, underground utility work for drainage and EV charging, paving for turn lanes and parking areas, and potentially electrical work for charging stations and ticket booths. Contractors specializing in site preparation, grading, paving, concrete, electrical, and landscaping services could find opportunities. Engaging early, before final plans and permits are set, offers the best chance to compete for this upcoming work.
