Pasco County’s public works and engineering services have announced the completion of a 16-month project to expand and improve Bell Lake Road, in Land O’ Lakes.
The mile-long project— completed along Bell Lake, from east of U.S. 41 (also known as Land O’ Lakes Boulevard) to Banjo Lake Road — included work to provide improved drainage by replacing ditches and adding curb, gutter and inlets, as well as a closed pipe system. Five-foot sidewalks were added, too.
“This project was completed on time and under budget,” Engineering Services Director Margaret Smith said, in a county news release. “We’re proud of these important roadway updates, which help improve safety for those who drive the road and walk along the new sidewalks.”
Pasco County also helped with roadwork construction leading up to a new convenience store and gas station at U.S. Highway 41 and Bell Lake Road, the release said.
