Department: DISTRICT 5
AGENDA ITEM WORDING:
Approval to send PDOT a formal resolution requesting that a priority be assigned to installation of a
radius curve at the flashing yellow light and intersection of C.R. 905 and Card Sound Road (S.R. 905-
A), located outside of the Ocean Reef community, to allow traffic to flow at 35 miles per hour.
ITEM BACKGROUND:
For many years, Monroe County has been requesting PDOT to provide a radius curve at the stop sign
just outside of Ocean Reef to facilitate hurricane evacuation. A collision between two trucks early in
the morning ofPebrnary 6 closed U.S. 1 for many hours. Traffic backed up for miles in each direction
at this intersection, creating a dangerous situation and reducing the traffic flow to less than 5 mph.
This same situation could occur during a hurricane evacuation and effectively extend the evacuation of
the Florida Keys for many hours. This radius curve must become a priority for Monroe County and the
State of Florida.
