Work on the Village of Estero’s Corkscrew Road Shared Use Path project has begun! This project constructs 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.
The 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. Currently the contractor is installing erosion control and beginning earthwork along Grandezza.
The project is estimated to cost approximately $23 million and is anticipated to be completed this fall.
