Michigan Avenue Gets Major Safety Upgrade | Orlando News

Michigan Avenue in Osceola County, long plagued by deadly pedestrian and bike crashes, is finally getting the safety overhaul it desperately needs. After years of delays and community outcry over speeding drivers, poor crosswalks, and dangerous bus stops, a major funding breakthrough—thanks to HUD and federal grants—is set to transform 2.74 miles of the road between US-192 and Osceola Parkway. Six intersections will feature new sidewalks, upgraded crosswalks, and smarter traffic signals—all designed to protect walkers and cyclists. Construction begins next year, promising a safer, more livable corridor for residents who’ve long feared crossing this busy street.
