PROJECT LIMITS

Segment 1 of the Capital Cascade Trail project is the Franklin Boulevard portion of the project, which begins at the intersection of Franklin Boulevard and East Tennessee Street (US Highway 90), then extends south along Franklin Boulevard to Lafayette Street, located just south of the Apalachee Parkway bridge.

PROJECT PURPOSE
This segment is well known for its periodic flooding due to the restricted size of the conerete-lined section of the St. Augustine Branch (ditch) located in the center of the boulevard. Franklin Boulevard is a Leon County roadway that is currently classified as a ‘minor arterial,’ which provides for only vehicular use (no sidewalks or bicycle lanes). This segment of the Cascade Trail project is unique due to the roadway and the limited Right-of-Way.

When built, the project will reconstruct the roadway, placing the drainage under ground in a box culvert. The reconstructed roadway will include bike lanes and sidewalks on both sides.
