The Village of Estero project is constructing a 10-foot-wide asphalt pathway on the north side of Corkscrew Road from Ben Hill Griffin Parkway to Palermo Lake Court, and 6-foot-wide concrete sidewalk from east of Palermo Lake Court that connects to the sidewalk that runs to Vista built by Lee County’s previous widening project. A 10-foot-wide asphalt pathway will also be constructed on the south side of Corkscrew Road from Ben Hill Griffin Parkway to Bella Terra Boulevard. Roadway and pathway lighting similar to those on Estero Parkway will be installed to complement the new facilities, along with a substantial amount of landscaping and irrigation which will add to the beautification of the Corkscrew Road corridor.
Drivers, pedestrians, and bicyclists are urged to use extra caution when traveling through the work zone.
- Crews are currently installing erosion control and performing earthwork along the north side of Corkscrew Road adjacent to Grandezza.
- Crews will be conducting underground drainage work on the north side of Corkscrew Road between Grande Oak Boulevard and Grand Oak Way.
The work activities above are scheduled to occur, however unforeseen underground conditions and weather may affect this schedule.
Please use caution and watch for workers and construction vehicles entering and leaving the roadway. Estimated completion is Fall 2025. Project cost is approximately $23 million.
