The Pasco County Commission has approved a task order with HNTB Corporation involving the installation of a three-way stop at Blanton Road and Lake Iola Road.
The board approved the task order for $187,317.79 during its Feb. 6 meeting.
The task order covers the design and post design services relating to the three-way stop project.
The Blanton Road and Lake Iola Road intersection currently experiences high crash rates. To enhance safety, the intersection will be realigned, and a three-way stop sign traffic control will be implemented.
The design work covered by the task order will be completed within 270 calendar days.
The projected cost for the improvement is slightly more than $3 million, with a portion of that amount planned in fiscal year 2024 and the remainder in fiscal year 2025, according to background materials in the county board’s Feb. 6 agenda packet.
