The GO Roads paving program is funded by the $150 million general ordinance bond approved by voters in November 2018.  The work program will be carried out in five phases over an eight-year construction period, with each phase being vetted by the City of Palm Bay's Infrastructure Oversight and Advisory Board before going to City Council for final approval.

The GO Roads program is intended to address street paving issues throughout the City of Palm Bay.  On October 11, 2019, Palm Bay Officials hosted a kickoff event in Unit 41 to mark the start of the GO Roads paving projects. The program phasing is shown below using colors for each phase.

GO Roads Projects Status

In November 2018, Palm Bay residents voted to approve a $150 million GO Roads Bond to repave city roads. Since then, the City has completed over 418 miles of road improvements in several areas of the city, including Eldron, Garvey, Port Malabar, sections of Emerson, Palm Bay Colony, Kirby Industrial Parks, and more. Several road projects are still in progress, with some under construction, others in the design phase, and more preparing for bidding.

The City is nearly complete with work in northeast Palm Bay in the neighborhoods off Port Malabar Blvd. between Palm Bay Road and Babcock Street, known as Country Club Units 1-10. Final completion of the road improvements is expected later this month. The work here is a mix of full-depth reclamation, mill and pave, and thin lift. The construction contractor for this area is Timothy Rose Contracting. The cost of the work in this area is close to $9M.

Other areas are in engineering with the design work around 90% completed. These areas include Koutnick, Seven Gables, and a portion of Eldron Blvd for mill and pave at a cost of nearly $11.7 million. In the vicinity of Fallon Blvd and Brookside Street and streets around Cricket Drive a combination of full-depth reclamation and mill and paving will be used, estimated at $3.7 million. A portion of Emerson Road NW, Jacobin, Glencove, Wake Forest, and Pace will be mill and paved at $13.5 million. Finally, Emerson Road from Malabar Road south to Waco Blvd, full-depth reclamation will be used for $3.9M.

In addition, easterly portions of Palo Alto and some of Eldron in the southeast quadrant, neighborhoods in the southwest quadrant west of Garvey to DeGroodt, and San Filippo from Malabar to Jupiter and portions of Community College Parkway are out to bid and due back February 18. These units were a mix of full-depth reclamation and mill and paving for $8.6 million.

Road paving for the northwest quadrant of the city, which includes the western portion of Serenade and Barritz and 20 cul-de-sacs within the neighborhoods off the east section of Krassner, is set to go out for bids in February. The work in this area is mill and paving, and is estimated to cost $2.5 million.

Road paving in the northeast quadrant of the city including Lockmar Estates is awaiting final design. This project is estimated at $8.6 million for full-depth reclamation and mill and paving.

Go Roads Paving Program has made significant progress, completing Phases 1 and 2. Phase 3 is 50% complete with the remaining areas out to bid. Work through Phase 4 is funded and in the design process.

Phase 5 is currently unfunded. However, the City is actively exploring alternative funding options to move forward. 

Milling and Paving

The existing asphalt pavement surface is milled and then typically paved with a 1.5” or 2" thick layer of new asphalt pavement.

The existing pavement surface is repaired of cracks and pots holes and then a thin 1.5" thick layer of asphalt overlay is placed on top of the existing pavement.

The Full Depth Reclamation (FDR) process pulverizes the existing asphalt and base material, mixes cement, emulsion, and water, and compacts the materials to produce a strong, durable structural base for the new road.  The asphalt pavement is placed on top of the new base structure.

The existing roadway is completely removed of the pavement and base material and then reconstructed by compacting sub-base and adding a new 8" thick base rock compacted and 2" think asphalt pavement.

Phase 2 – Florida Avenue Full Depth Reclamation

Florida Avenue Road Paving was a joint City of Palm Bay and City of Melbourne funded project which included the following:

• Design plans and construction inspections by City of Palm Bay

Phase 3 – Unit 48 Road Paving (Under Construction)

As of December 1, 2022, Ranger has completed milling and paving over 50% of the streets in Unit 48.  The photos were the paving operation of Elmont Street and Dusseldorf Ave.

Phase 3 – Unit 30 Road Paving (Under Construction)

The contractor (Tim Rose) in Unit 30 has started the FDR operation.  Below are photos from Tuesday 11/15/22 of the Faulkner Street FDR.   Photos show the FDR mixer pulverizing the existing roadway with the add cement to create a new 8” depth base material.   The material is then rolled to compaction and graded to a profile with a motor grader.  The FDR surface will then be primed and ready for the new asphalt pavement.  

More Information On GO Roads Projects

The City of Palm Bay is making significant strides in enhancing its roadway capacity to improve traffic flow and enhance public safety. Several key road widening projects are in various stages of design and construction, demonstrating the City's commitment to investing in traffic improvements for its residents and businesses.

Babcock Street Widening at St. Johns Heritage Parkway

Construction is actively underway for the widening of Babcock Street at St. Johns Heritage Parkway. This $7.7 million project, awarded to Timothy Rose Contracting, is expected to be completed within the next few months.

The Mara Loma at Babcock signal is within Brevard County’s jurisdiction and is being constructed by a developer. The traffic signal is expected to be operational after some intersection work is completed. The County has been working diligently alongside the developer to finalize the sidewalk and crosswalk components of the signalization, demonstrating a strong commitment to ensuring the project is completed as efficiently and safely as possible. For any questions regarding the Mara Loma signal and the school zone speed signs on Babcock Street, please contact the Brevard County Public Works Department, Traffic Division, at (321) 633-2077.

St. Johns Heritage Parkway Widening from Malabar Road to Emerson Drive

A major improvement is in progress for St. Johns Heritage Parkway from Malabar Road north to Emerson Drive. The project is currently in the survey design phase with Scalar Consulting Group and is partially funded by a $1.5 million State appropriation for the 2024-2025 legislative session. The design process includes evaluating traffic signalization at key intersections such as Emerson Drive, Pace Drive, and the planned bridge connection at Fred Poppe Regional Park. Additionally, future considerations are being explored for improvements at the Malabar Road and St. Johns Heritage Parkway intersection, including a proposed roundabout or a traffic signal.

With a total design and engineering cost of $3.3 million, the City is proactively designing the roadway improvements. Importantly, the City already owns the necessary property and associated drainage for the future project, positioning the City to seek construction funding. A public meeting with nearby residents will be scheduled in March 2025 to provide updates and gather community input.

Malabar Road Widening from Minton Road to West of St. Johns Heritage Parkway

Another long-sought roadway project involves early planning of the widening of Malabar Road to four lanes from Minton Road to St. Johns Heritage Parkway. The City, in partnership with Kittelson & Associates, has completed what is known as a Project Development & Environment study to determine social, economic, natural, and physical environmental impacts of this future transportation improvement. This comprehensive study involved professional engineers, planners, and scientists collecting and analyzing project-related data to develop the best alternative concept for the future roadway. The study was shared during a final public meeting in December 2024. The next step is for the City to secure a design and engineering firm for this $10 million design project that is partially funded by $3 million from Florida Department of Transportation. The City’s contracting process for hiring the design and engineering firm is currently under review by the City and the Florida Department of Transportation. The Malabar Road widening is a regional priority in the Space Coast Transportation Planning Organization’s 2045 Long Range Transportation Plan. Ownership and responsibility of the entire roadway is shared in segments between the City, Brevard County, and the Florida Department of Transportation. The City will work closely with our partners at Brevard County, Florida Department of Transportation, Space Coast Transportation Planning Organization, and our state and federal elected officials on funding strategies for this long-term, significant improvement, which will likely have to be funded in segments.

The City of Palm Bay is committed to protecting the community and its waterways through sound planning, construction, maintenance, and improvement of the drainage control systems. The City’s Stormwater Utility Program makes this goal a reality, while providing a means for the City to meet State and Federal regulations for discharging stormwater. The continuation of this and other stormwater projects ensures a healthy municipal infrastructure and improved quality of life for Palm Bay residents.   

The City’s stormwater pipe replacement follows ahead of the Road Bond Paving with Public Works engineers tasked to design the pipes and culverts with Inspection staff to provide construction inspections.  In addition, Public Works operations crews are assisting with the installation of pipes in units with smaller number of pipe replacements.  Below are photos of the Public Works crew replacing a pipe crossing.

The following is an update on the contracted stormwater projects: 

• Harper Blvd at C-18 culvert replacement is the installation of 10 ft x 7 ft box culvert with low bid contract of $418,258 and estimated start in first quarter of 2023; Encountered delays in manufacturing has slowed the start date.
• Units 22 and 30 culvert replacement includes 42 street pipe crossings in unit 30 and 23 street pipe crossings in unit 22 with an awarded contract of $665,850.25 with final completion projected in the first quarter of 2023.
• Units 37 and 57 pipe Replacement includes 10 street pipe crossings in unit 37 and 10 street pipe crossings in unit 57 with an awarded contract of $385,859.75 with final completion projected in the second quarter of 2023.
• Units 44, 45, 50, 55 are projected to go out to bid and construction in FY 23.

• Rockabye at C-41 culvert replacement with the installation of 9 ft x 6 ft box culvert projected to go out to bid and construction in FY 23.
• San Filippo Drive Cured In Place Pipe Culvert rehabilitation also planned for FY 23; This work will require one of the northbound lanes on San Filippo to be closed for four days leaving only one drivable northbound lane from south of Community College Parkway to south of the entrance to Walgreens. Work is currently scheduled for Monday, January 9^th.
• Cured In Place Pipe Culvert rehabilitation also planned at 23 locations with an approximate cost of 1mill for FY 23.

To reduce pollutant discharges into the impaired Indian River Lagoon; Nutrient separating third (3rd) generation baffle boxes at five (5) drainage outfalls within the City of Palm Bay are planned for FY 23.  The five locations are strategically located to benefit basins 3, 6, and 7, and together create a treatment train.  The benefit of the five (5) baffle boxes is that they will help to reduce the amount of Total Nitrogen, Total Phosphorus and Total Suspended Solids from the drainage system and will help to improve water quality for the impaired Indian River Lagoon. Funded with the assistance of FDEP (Florida Department of Environmental Protection).

Baffle box being awarded and pending starting construction.
