With an emphasis on pedestrian safety, traffic calming, lighting and transit infrastructure, the program was designed to address long-standing community concerns at a rapid pace.<\/p>\n<p>Since its inception, 76 projects have been completed under the program, including the installation of 44 new sidewalks, 25 roadway lighting enhancements and seven safety-specific improvements. These projects are part of the County\u2019s broader commitment to reducing crashes, improving walkability and increasing equitable access to public transportation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOrange County is building better access, mobility and efficiency through this important program,\u201d said Mayor Jerry L. Demings. \u201cAnd, with a year under our belt, I\u2019m excited to say that much has been accomplished, and much more will be as program efforts continue.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Among the most significant accomplishments completed this year:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Rio Grande Avenue Pedestrian Safety Improvements<\/strong> \u2013 Enhanced crosswalks, signage and pedestrian refuge areas now provide a safer route for students and residents walking along this busy corridor.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Town Center Boulevard<\/strong> \u2013 New speed feedback signs and temporary bi-directional median openings were installed to improve driver awareness and traffic flow in a growing commercial and residential zone. After a one-year assessment period, County engineers will make recommendations on making these improvements permanent.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Kirby Smith Road and Tyson Road<\/strong> \u2013 This area saw a range of improvements including speed tables, raised crosswalks, a new 4-way stop, fresh pavement striping and new lighting along Tyson Road. A sidewalk installation along the south side of Tyson just started construction this month.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Looking ahead, the County is working on Clarcona-Ocoee Road \u2014 an area with documented speeding issues and past fatalities \u2013 with speed feedback signs and other safety improvements. The County is preparing to break ground on the traffic signal project, which will install both a pedestrian crosswalk signal and a full traffic signal. Completion is expected by mid 2027.<\/p>\n<p>In parallel, Orange County is investing $55 million over five years to improve the LYNX regional transportation system. These funds have already enabled more frequent bus service and shorter wait times, resulting in a 35 percent jump in ridership on those improved routes. One route serving the Washington Shores neighborhood saw an 81 percent increase in Sunday riders. As part of the program, 264 new bus shelters will also be installed countywide.<\/p>\n<p>With dozens of additional projects underway or planned, the\u00a0 ATSP initiative continues to deliver meaningful improvements that residents can see \u2014 and feel \u2014 on the road.<\/p>\n<p>For more, go to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.orangecountyfl.net\/TrafficTransportation\/AcceleratedTransportationSafetyProgram.aspx\">Accelerated Transportation Safety Program<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Completed Safety Projects:<\/strong><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><em>Last updated July 2025<\/em><\/span><\/h3>\n<h3><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-22772 alignnone\" style=\"font-size: 16px;
