State Road 37 will be upgraded, with major construction likely to start in 2018 or 2019. The highway traffic north and south will become underpasses and east-west vehicles will use roundabout overpasses to move back and forth across the highway.  That much we do know, but much is still not known about the upcoming project.

For example, engineers have said construction will happen at 2 intersections at the same time.  Which two intersections will be first?  No one knows at this point.

The intersections to get roundabout overpasses over State Road 37 are 126th, 131st, 141st and 146th Streets.  With 2 being constructed at one time, we still do not know which 2 of those 4 intersections will be under construction in the first phase.

Residents heard about extensive traffic studies underway to develop ways to navigate the construction zones once they are underway.

Most questions from the audience dealt with drainage issues in specific areas of certain neighborhoods, and the contractors assured them that all options will be studied.
