Public Works

In FY 2025, Broward County Public Works completed 11 construction projects and advanced transportation surtax-funded projects to improve roadway safety, mobility, multimodal access, and infrastructure resilience across Broward County.

For FY 2025–FY 2029, the Broward County Public Works Department proposed approximately $326.7M in transportation infrastructure projects as part of its Five-Year Plan, which were reviewed and approved to receive surtax funding by the Independent Transportation Surtax Oversight Board. As part of this plan, Public Works will continue to advance major roadway, drainage, and bridge rehabilitation projects across Broward County, addressing structural deficiencies and extending their service life. Funding is also allocated toward road capacity expansion, intersection improvements, adaptive signal control, fiber optics networks, mast arm conversions, school zone safety improvements, and supporting countywide safety, mobility, and congestion management objectives.

Public Works completed the Port By-Pass Road, also known as the Convention Center Connector in Port Everglades. The project included construction of a bridge and service road to improve access to Eisenhower Boulevard, the Broward County Convention Center, and the new Omni Hotel, helping to ease congestion and improve mobility in the area.

Addressing roadway flooding and drainage remained a key focus in FY 2025. Surtax-funded initiatives continued to advance roadway resilience efforts in the Broward Municipal Services District (BMSD), including Boulevard Gardens, Broadview Park, Franklin Park, Roosevelt Gardens, Washington Park, and other areas of the county. Improvements targeted corridors such as NE 6 Ave, Andrews Ave, NW 21 Ave/NW 23 Ave, and NW 19 St to reduce flooding impacts and improve roadway performance Flooding issues in the BMSD are being addressed using Transportation Surtax and Gas Tax funds, with the help of additional federal and state grant awards.
