Palmetto Expressway Interchange at NW 36 Street

October 26, 2011 · Final Design

This project consisted of the redesign of the existing cloverleaf interchange to a partial clover-leaf interchange with loop ramps in the northwest and southeast quadrants.  The design work, prepared by DPA, included the widening of the Palmetto Expressway bridges over NW 36 Street and Dressel’s Dairy Canal, the widening of the NW 36 Street bridge over Dressel’s Dairy Canal, and the widening of NW 36 Street.  Intersection design, in addition to the design of ramp terminals, included the establishment of tapers, transitions, acceleration and deceleration lanes, and storage lanes, as well as the design of channelizing features.  Construction of the interchange was completed in 2006.
