Upcoming Events
Alachua County is working with EDAW, Inc., landscape architects and
environmental planners, to prepare a Master Plan for the Old Florida
Heritage Highway to meet the following general objectives:
1. Implement a heritage corridor which ties with tourism-building
utilizing cultural resources and recreation resources, and then linking
them as tourist attractions, and building economic development.
2. Coordinate the design theme concepts and final designs and recommend
land development regulations to protect the scenic quality consistent
with the 2001-2020 Alachua County Comprehensive Plan.
The subcontractor consultant team also includes Conway Conservation,
Inc.; Lewis Environmental Services, Inc.; Causseaux & Ellington, Inc.;
Armstrong + Cohen Architecture, and NorthSouth Studios, LLC.
Public Workshops will be announced soon for the process to draft design
themes, sketches for parks and access locations, interpretive plans and
a traffic calming scheme. For more information, contact Kathleen Pagan,

The 48 (forty-eight) miles of U.S. 441 and adjacent loop/spur roads just south of Gainesville provide a vista of rural countryside draped with Spanish hanging moss, cattle, state parks and historic towns.
Exploring this corridor offers access to an unusually well preserved section of Florida's natural and scenic heritage.
