A 32-mile stretch of U.S. 1 is currently in upheaval due to two construction projects set to complete later this year.

Work to resurface, improve drainage and add shoulders to U.S. 1, from the Volusia County line to Black Branch bridge, just south of Bunnell, is currently being contracted by the Florida Department of Transportation to P&S Paving Inc., according to FDOT spokeswoman Jessica Keane.

Both projects combine for a total cost of $8.33 million and are expected to complete by this fall.

For about four months, the road from Black Branch bridge to the White Eagle Lounge, at 5530 U.S. 1, will become a one-way route, switching one lane each way northbound and southbound, until resurfacing is complete.

The second part of the project will be to add thermoplastic striping to the entire roadway, as well as two-foot shoulders on the inside medians, from State Road 100 to the St. John’s County line.
