There is a six-inch watermain that needs to be directionally drilled under I-275 in greenspace at the end of Caracas. The contractor is still working with FDOT and their contractor to obtain all the necessary information so they can finalize plans and revise their FDOT permit for this work. FDOT still requires occasional access to the site from the end of Caracas. Once access is no longer needed, the fence and guardrail at the end of the road will be replaced.
