📢 Share Your Input on the Future of Cape Coral Parkway

The City of Cape Coral is launching a 20-year planning study for Cape Coral Parkway and is seeking community feedback to help guide future improvements along the corridor.

As a major evacuation route, the study will explore long-term ways to improve storm resilience, traffic flow, safety, and emergency access while helping keep the roadway usable during severe weather events.

The study will also examine mobility, congestion, flooding, and ways to better support driving, walking, biking, and transit. Potential concepts will be evaluated as short-term (1–5 years), medium-term (5–10 years), and long-term (10+ years) opportunities.

🚧 Traffic Advisory: Periodic Road Closures on SE 47th Terrace 🚧

The City was made aware late yesterday, May 19, that SE 47th Terrace is currently blocked near the LCEC substation at the corner of SE 8th Court and SE 47th Terrace near Coronado. The closure is due to ongoing work by LCEC subcontractor crews, who are digging a foundation at the site.

Please note: these closures are not permanent and will be periodic as work progresses at different locations between SE 9th Place and Palm Tree Boulevard. This work is expected to continue through the end of June.

At this time, traffic is being detoured between SE 8th Court and SE 9th Terrace. Motorists are encouraged to seek alternate routes and use caution while traveling in the area.

We appreciate your patience as this work is completed.

🚧 Ever thought, “You know what this road needs? More lanes.” 🚧

Good news, Downtown Cape — help is on the way!

The Cape Coral Parkway East Six Lane Improvement Project is a $2.37 million investment designed to improve traffic flow, safety, and connectivity through one of the City’s busiest corridors.

Here’s what’s coming:
🚗 Six continuous travel lanes from Coronado Parkway to Del Prado Boulevard
🚦 Upgraded traffic signals to improve efficiency
🛣️ Fresh resurfacing for a smoother ride
📈 A 50% increase in travel lanes once aligned with Lee County’s Cape Coral Bridge six-laning project

And for everyone asking about parking… yes, more is coming there too!

With the completion of The Cove at 47th and Bimini Square parking garages, plus additional parking lots planned along Vincennes Street and SE 47th Terrace, the South Cape CRA district is expected to gain more than 300 new parking spaces this year.

More lanes. More parking. Better access. A stronger Downtown Cape.

That’s how you drive progress. 🚙💨

🌧️ Rainy season is around the corner, and the City is investing in the CRA district to keep businesses open and streets safer when storms roll through.

🚧 Over the next few months, crews will be upgrading stormwater drainage in key alleyways along Lafayette Street behind our downtown businesses to help reduce standing water and keep loading areas more accessible after a storm.

🤝 We appreciate your patience as we invest in a safer, stronger CRA district.
