Polk Parkway is getting repaved between mile 8 and mile 17

FDOT crews are resurfacing a nine-mile stretch of Polk Parkway (SR 570) and upgrading guardrail along the way.

The Florida Department of Transportation has a roughly $16.3 million contract underway to resurface Polk Parkway (SR 570) from mile marker 8 to mile marker 17 in Polk County. The work covers new pavement plus guardrail and safety improvements along the corridor.

C.W. Roberts Contracting, Inc. holds the contract (E8V21), which was let in January 2025. Records show work began April 28, 2025, with estimated completion listed as September 24, 2026.

FDOT's work-program record lists the project's status as under construction, spanning fiscal years 2024 through 2026.

Crews continue paving and guardrail work along the parkway, with completion estimated in 2026. Expect lane closures and shifting work zones during construction.
