FDOT presents $4.15B tentative District 6 work program; Monroe gets ~$61M with bridge rehab set for Long Key
Summary
FDOT District 6 staff presented a roughly $4.15 billion tentative five-year program and highlighted Monroe County allocations (~$61M, down ~6%), airport and bridge projects, including a Long Key major rehabilitation project with construction-related costs cited around $300 million and replacement estimates substantially higher.
Florida Department of Transportation District 6 staff presented the tentative five-year work program (FY2026'27 through FY2030'31), highlighting an overall district program of approximately $4.15 billion and a Monroe County allocation of about $61,000,000 (roughly 6% less than last year), according to Tonette and Heidi from FDOT.
FDOT staff noted several Monroe projects in the program, including Key West International Airport Concourse A Phase 2 with an $8,000,000 department contribution and a Long Key bridge major rehabilitation project slated for construction in fiscal year 2030. "That project in 2030 is about, let's say, dollars 300,000,000 for all the construction related costs," FDOT staff said, and added that full replacement could cost well above that figure. The board acknowledged the high costs and directed continued coordination with FDOT on timing and local impacts.
