Project Completed
On Dec. 19, 2024, St. Johns County held a ribbon cutting ceremony to celebrate the completion of the Longleaf Pine Parkway Widening project. This $15.1 million project widened over four miles of roadway from Roberts Road to Veterans Parkway and included a new traffic signal at Shetland Drive.
This project was entirely paid for by developer funding and was completed before the planned development was added to the area. This marks a major step forward in holding developers in St. Johns County accountable.
“The developer’s contribution demonstrates a model partnership. One that aligns with our county’s vision for responsible growth and development,” said Commissioner Christian Whitehurst.
Speakers included Christian Whitehurst, District 1 Commissioner for the St. Johns County Board of County Commissioners and Greg Caldwell, Director of Public Works. The County’s Office of Public Affairs produced a video to recap the occasion.
England-Thims & Miller (ETM) was the civil engineer team on the project, with C.W. Matthew Contracting Co. Baker Division leading construction.
