Vehicle and Pedestrian Traffic Management & Mitigation: Enhance and update the Town ' s traffic mitigation plans for roadways not meeting the Town ' s level of service standards; and employ strategies to reduce the number of accidents and bicycle / pedestrian / vehicle conflicts. To improve pedestrian safety, the Town completed construction of 12 new crosswalks with flashing lights within Jupiter. Four additional locations have been identified and are in the design process. The Town continues to work with FDOT on a number of projects, including Phase 2 of the western Indiantown Road expansion and a feasibility study for a shared-use path along U. S. 1. The Town has also actively participated in Palm Beach County’ s Transportation Master Plan, which will determine the focus of roadway improvements throughout the county for the future. The Jupiter Police Department also began the process of drafting new e-bike safety ordinances.
Western portion of Indiantown Road: Pursue implementation of various roadway capacity improvements and traffic mitigation solutions. Phase 1 of FDOT’ s project to widen western Indiantown Road was completed. The project added a lane in each direction, with the westbound lane extending from Jupiter West Plaza to I-95 and the eastbound lane from I-95 to Palm Way. The Town contributed financially to the project.
