Project

The responses will help decide the future of this corridor and other potential changes, including:

1. Enhanced signs and markings for golf cart sharing; added delineators and concrete buffers to prevent vehicles from using golf cart lane; added golf cart crossings.

2. Removal of golf cart lanes and addition of an 8-foot sidewalk on east side between Upper Creek and Ventana Drive.

3. Removal of golf cart lanes and prohibiting golf carts from using the road and sidewalk of Cypress Village Boulevard.

Background

In 2019, a Sun City Center Mobility Study was completed with an emphasis on infrastructure and safety improvements. Recommended safety improvements on Cypress Village Boulevard included a shared and dedicated golf cart lane, a midblock pedestrian crosswalk, and milling and resurfacing the outside lanes. The County transformed the boulevard from a road with four motor vehicle lanes to a two-lane road with two lanes for golf carts. Other safety improvements along Cypress Village Boulevard included the Americans with Disabilities (ADA) ramps, additional signage, a high-emphasis golf cart crossing, white vertical plastic delineators, and new pavement markings.

Based on the mobility study, a virtual survey was completed in September 2022. In March 2023, an in-person meeting was held to gather further input from the community, along with a virtual component enabling residents to participate online.

This current virtual engagement is to gather feedback from the community on improvements to-date and overall safety along Cypress Village Boulevard, and seek to input regarding additional safety features.
