Thank you for reporting this issue to us via SeeClickFix St. Pete. We have forwarded the details you have provided to the appropriate City department so that they may investigate and take any necessary action. We appreciate your help! Sincerely, Mayor's Action Center

This issue is under the jurisdiction of the Florida Department of Transportation. We have forwarded your concern to the project manager for review and response.

Please post the name and phone # for the person at FDOT who is responsible for this issue. Thank you.

call me at 893-7843 with your phone number. They have ask for it to be able to call you.

I have not heard from the DOT as of yet.

This has been an issue for months and all the city seems to do is send an officer to chase people for a couple hours and forward posts from here. I sincerely hope they're getting ticketed. I had someone turn right in front of me across my path a few minutes ago after an officer was just there at noon. Please stop (seemingly) just forwarding the issue and washing your hands of this before someone's killed in a wreck. They are working in our city, so hold FDOT accountable as our representatives. Their handling of this construction is as poor as Ulmerton was!

This response assumes that this complaint is about the temporary north bound 94th Ave to westbound Gandy movement. North bound drivers on 94th Ave are to cross the temporary Gandy pavement to get to the 94th Ave and 16th St intersection, execute a left turn at the intersection, and then merge into westbound Gandy traffic. Instead drivers are stopping at the temporary Gandy pavement to make an illegal left turn in spite of the signage declaring “no left turn”. Construction of the 94th Ave overpass is nearing completion. When the overpass is complete the Department’s contractor will shift traffic from the temporary ground level Gandy pavement to the Gandy overpass over 94th Ave. After moving traffic, the temporary at-grade pavement will be removed eliminating this temporary situation. This traffic move is expected, pending the impacts of weather and suppliers, by Christmas 2016. The reason a left turn lane was not included in the original temporary design is due to safety because adequate clear zones and sight lines cannot be achieved in order to safely make a left turn. Thank you for your patience as we improve the roadways in our community and we ask for your continuing patience throughout the remaining construction. The Department and City of St Petersburg regularly work with local law enforcement to enforce the traffic laws and rules in this area.
Sincerely, Hank
