60th Avenue East from US 301 to Mendoza Road Improvements
Owner: Manatee County, Florida Location: Manatee County, Florida
KCA is conducting a study to collect field and engineering data and analyze three build alternatives for improvements along 60th Avenue East in Manatee County. The objective is to evaluate widening and operational improvements to 60th Avenue East to improve traffic operations and provide a multi-modal facility accommodating bicyclists and pedestrians. In close proximity to the Ellenton Premium Outlets, this project is considered high importance and a priority for Manatee County. Improvements include widening 60th Avenue East to a six-lane section from US 301 to Factory Shop Boulevard and widening/reconstructing 60th Avenue from Factory Shop Boulevard to Mendoza Road to provide a two-lane or a four-lane section. The 60th Avenue East corridor from US 301 to Mendoza Road will include street lighting along with bicycle lanes, sidewalks, and/or a multi-use trail.
