Improvements also include upgrading vehicle and pedestrian signalization at West Atlantic Boulevard, Royal Palm Boulevard and Wiles Road. Other improvements include repairing the bridge deck joints on the bridge over the C-14 Canal (Bridge No. 864098) along Coral Ridge Drive, reconstructing sidewalk ramps, modifying and relocating drainage structures, milling, resurfacing and adding pavement markings, according to Community Outreach Specialist Rebecca Guerrero.
