4089 Parsons has been selected by the 4503 Florida Department of Transportation, District 5, to carry out an interchange analysis for the conceptual layout and ultimate reconfiguration of the I-95 interchange with LPGA Boulevard in Volusia County, Florida. Upon completion of the analysis and selection of the interchange configuration, Parsons will also perform final design services.

The interchange is a crucial access point during morning and evening rush-hour traffic in the area, where traffic and congestion are expected to rapidly increase due to the rise in residential and commercial development. The proposed interchange reconfiguration will improve traffic conditions by reconfiguring the interchange to support the projected traffic through the 2040 design year.

The Parsons team will analyse traffic patterns, propose conceptual interchange modifications and facilitate collaboration with area planning organisations/local governments to alleviate traffic queues, increase driver safety, and improve the overall traffic flow.
