Construction should begin in two to three years on an interchange at Interstate 95 and Matanzas Woods Parkway, according to Flagler County Administrator Craig Coffey.

The Federal High Administration has approved the interchange justification report submitted by the county.

“It’s the first step toward a full-blown interchange,” Coffey said.

Funds for the project will come from the Florida Department of Transportation. The county has already spent $275,000 of federal money in the past year-and-a-half to complete the justification report, Coffey said.

“This was the big hurdle,” he said. Next, there will be a preliminary design and engineering phase, followed by design. Public input will be encouraged at each step.
