Big Redfish Drainage Improvement Project- This project will replace the existing culverts on Co Hwy 30A at Big Redfish Lake with a new bridge. The new bridge will upgrade the drainage capacity on Co Hwy 30A at Big Redfish Lake which has seen substantial damage during past storm events.
By removing the existing culverts, this project will also provide an environmental benefit by allowing the lake to function in a more natural state. All engineering, design, and permitting is complete and utility relocations are scheduled to take place in early 2017. Construction of this project is currently scheduled for after Labor Day 2017. This project is being provided by a HMGP grant from FEMA with additional funding provided by the Walton County Board of County Commissioners.

Something needs to be done about the detour intersections on 98 - traffic is backed up on grayton rd going north. Need to change the light frequency or get a traffic cop.

Agree. I would move for Citizen Service Officer Leah to spearhead the whole thing. She is more than capable and should be paid as a full time staff member. She's out directing traffic at almost every wreck.

Any project along 30A should be expedited. If tourism is your main business you can't treat the infrastructure the same as you would elsewhere.
If you want to be a 5 star destination you can't have 3 star service.

We have a zero star county district commissioner going to bat for us. His handlers couldn't give a damn about what the long term consequences are of killing the golden goose.
