The City of Cape Canaveral continues progress on key infrastructure enhancements, with the Thurm Blvd Improvements Project entering its bidding preparation phase. Estimated at $4.12 million, the project incorporates $1.2 million in impact fees and potential state grants from the Department of Environmental Protection.[1]
Project Details and Timeline
City staff reviewed 90 percent construction plans in March 2026 and anticipates receipt of the 100 percent plans and bid package soon. Bidding is slated for April or May 2026, marking a significant step for this government-led roadway upgrade.[1] The additional $964,000 in impact fees brings the total secured funding to $2.164 million.
Parallel efforts include the Presidential Streets - Fillmore Avenue project, where bids were opened in February 2026 and recommended for council review in March. Engineering costs are set at $299,900, with construction costs to be determined upon award.[1]
Other initiatives, such as FDOT-managed SR A1A resurfacing and pedestrian improvements, support broader regional connectivity, though their lettings are scheduled later in 2026.[1]
Near-term, the Thurm Blvd project bids will open opportunities for local contractors, with construction expected to commence later in 2026 following award.
