New Drone Footage Shows Progress of State Road 535 Improvements

Work continues at the Interstate 4 (I-4) and Apopka-Vineland Road (State Road (S.R.) 535) improvements project, as shown in this recent drone footage. This project will partially reconstruct the interchange to enhance safety and improve access to and from westbound I-4.

The start of the video shows the two stormwater ponds that are part of the project in the middle, while the area in the foreground will be dewatered by crews as part of the ongoing drainage work at the site.

The second shot shows the recently driven piles that will support a new loop ramp entrance to westbound I-4. This loop ramp will improve safety at the interchange by eliminating a turn across traffic to access I-4.

Next, the video shows the southbound traffic shift on S.R. 535 as crews work on widening the roadway. This is followed by action footage of a bulldozer dewatering the area where the loop ramp will be constructed. Finally, the drone captured an overhead view of where the Crossroads shopping plaza once stood. This area will house the new loop ramp and stormwater runoff.
