Hanna

  • Work is scheduled to begin on Hanna in front of Seminole Elementary over summer of 2023 when school is out to avoid conflicts with school programs.

Miami and Osceola

  • The city has determined that no additional curb will be replaced on these streets. The milling of the existing asphalt is scheduled for early April. At that same time the final layer of asphalt will be installed across the entire road. This is based on the earliest availability of our paving subcontractor.
