Scenic 30A and 395 Intersection in Seagrove Beach

[NotDeadYet]

I would expect the signal to be more expensive - the signal itself and the utility work I guess, but 400K does seem like a lot.

I can't believe this county would allow the fire dept. to stage their boot collection campaign this week-end!! How stupid is that. Took my wife nearly 45 minutes to go from Camp Creek Lake ( home ) to the 395/30a intersection this morning. Needless to say she will be very late opening the gallery in Seaside, for which I'm sure she will take some grief from tourists. With all the complaints about this intersection recently this makes no sense.

Too many people on too narrow of a road. But the TDC will figure out ways to bring in more people. Need balance between tourists needed to support businesses and quality of life for locals. With how small the 395/30a area is, I can't say with any confidence there is a great solution.

There's already a flashing red light at the intersection. Why not replace it with a plain old red/green light? That's too simple for a bunch of idiots I suppose.

I thought that too at first, but the explanation was, I think, that they would have to add turn lanes to the intersection with a red/yellow/green light because traffic would be moving through the intersection faster on the green light than it is doing now with the three-way stop.

Really need to find a way to get the bicycles to stop at the intersection. They just blow through assuming folks see them. As careful as I try to be, some clown always seems to test my reaction time.

We need a turn lane when the speed limit is so low?

I think we need some better traffic planning advice, this cannot be the first time in history that such a situation has needed a solution.

Why do we always need to reinvent the wheel instead of finding examples of successful solutions elsewhere and copying them?

This is the core problem. You would think that maybe they could pick up the phone and call somebody knowledgeable at Florida Department of Transportation for a little advice, but the goonies try to figure it out themselves... We can chit and chat about this ad infinitum, but I've been told this roundabout is a done deal.

I've decided the solution for me is to just avoid going to Seagrove/Seaside altogether. I plan to sell my place there so I won't be bothered with it. Hopefully, I can get at least what I paid for it. After more than 20 years I'm ready to move on.

Have you listed your place. I have a lot in Seagrove but interested in buying??
