Crews have once again rerouted traffic onto the new, permanent lanes of Florida’s Sanibel Island Causeway, another milestone in the facility’s reconstruction, according to News-Press. The causeway and its islands are still undergoing restoration after being severely damaged in 2022’s Hurricane Ian. The article provides a detailed account of the ongoing work and pending lane shifts. It also notes that restoration was hampered by Hurricanes Helene and Milton this year, “but the project remains on course to be completely finished in 2027.”
