Periwinkle Way Milling, Resurfacing Project Begins Next Week

The Periwinkle Way Milling and Resurfacing Project is scheduled to begin on Monday, September 15, 2025. The stretch of Periwinkle included in the project is from 500 feet west of Casa Ybel Road to approximately one-third of a mile east of Donax Street.

The work will begin with drainage repairs along the north side of Periwinkle Way, including the installation of swales and concrete pipes on Main Street, Fitzhugh Street, Palm Street, and Center Street. Work hours for the drainage repair work will be between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m.

Within the next few weeks, milling and paving of Periwinkle will begin in the evening and overnight hours, from 7 p.m. to 6 a.m. The City will provide notice through a news release and post the information on the City’s Facebook page and website when this phase of the project is set to begin.

Access to residences and businesses will be maintained at all times. The public is reminded to drive slowly and cautiously through the work areas when workers are present. The contractor will have signage and flaggers present to direct traffic.

The entire project is estimated to take approximately 120 days, weather permitting.
