The City of Tallahassee is implementing enhanced traffic safety measures along the Pensacola Street and St. Augustine Road corridors near Florida State University’s campus. This project was developed in coordination with FSU, and changes include speed limit reductions, new pedestrian infrastructure, enhanced signage and construction of speed tables and raised intersections.

The planned improvements aim to reduce vehicular speeds in the area and provide more pedestrian visibility. This will be complemented by FSU with an educational campaign, which will be implemented at the beginning of the fall 2024 semester, to bring greater awareness to students of potential risks and ways that they can minimize those risks through personal behaviors.

Installation of the physical improvements begins Monday, June 24, and is anticipated to be complete by August 15, ahead of the start of FSU’s fall semester, barring no unanticipated delays.
