The Florida Department of Transportation is initiating a significant project to enhance the I-75 and Fruitville Road (SR 780) interchange in Sarasota. The plan involves reconstructing the existing partial cloverleaf design into a Diverging Diamond Interchange, just like at University Parkway! It’s aimed at reducing delays and improving safety by minimizing conflict points. Additional improvements include widening approximately two miles of I-75 from Palmer Boulevard to north of Fruitville Road, reconstructing bridges over Fruitville Road and Palmer Boulevard, and adding 7-foot buffered bike lanes and 6-foot sidewalks along Fruitville Road. Construction is slated to begin now with an estimated completion in early 2029. For more details, visit FDOT’s project page.
