The intersection of Orange Camp Road and Martin Luther King Jr. Beltway in DeLand will begin to operate as a roundabout Monday, April 11. The transition will include removal of the traffic signals at the intersection and is expected to significantly impact traffic in the area. Drivers using the intersection are urged to be cautious and patient.
Construction on the four-laning of Orange Camp Road from just east of Blue Lake Avenue to the Interstate 4 interchange will continue and is expected to be complete this summer. The roundabout is designed to improve efficiency and safety of the intersection. The project also will include repair of a 10-foot concrete multi-use trail, 5-foot east and westbound bike lanes on Orange Camp Road and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Beltway, and pedestrian crossing and curb and gutter improvements.
