Hollywood and Lauderhill School Zones Get Safety Boost From Broward County Upgrades

The safety features around Broward County’s school zones are about to be upgraded, with the first modifications taking place at Hollywood’s Oakridge Elementary School and Lauderhill’s Broward Estates Elementary School. Today, the Department of Highway Construction and Engineering Division of Public Works will focus its efforts on improving the protection of these busy student-populated regions.

Among the major improvements is the use of solar LED ground flashers, which are expected to provide a more robust and environmentally responsible option than their power-operated counterparts. This change aims to fully catch and wisely use the sun’s gift, a task that is both necessary and difficult to execute rapidly. According to a statement from the Broward County Government, school-related signs will be updated, and pavement markings will also be refreshed.

These Mobility Advancement Program initiatives, which are financed by the Penny for Transportation surtax, demonstrate a real dedication to improving the area’s infrastructure. Parents and educators alike are looking forward to the financial and strategic investment, which is scheduled to be completed in February 2025.

Contractors and inspection staff should collaborate closely with local businesses and people to minimize inconvenience. Project Manager Eddie Martin can be reached by phone at 954-577-4643 or by email at [email protected] if you require more information or would like to voice concerns. 954-577-4555 is the number to call with questions about the Highway Construction and Engineering Division.
