CR2209 Now Open

Well I missed it. I missed the grand opening of CR 2209 or should I say St Johns Parkway. Either way, this new road will sure make the connection between Race Track Rd. and CR 210.

For those that haven't traveled it yet, CR 2209, er St Johns Parkway runs pretty much straight North and South. There is a traffic light a couple miles north of CR 210 where it meets up with Russell Sampson and then another couple of miles up to Race Track Rd.

My biggest concern with the road is the potential volume of people that will head south to eventually take I-95. With the new developments (Aberdeen and Durbin Crossing) well underway, will those people come down to CR 210 or would they go up to Race Track. Sometime in the future, there will be a new road connecting Race Track Rd. with St Augustine Rd. Seems a good part of that has been built. But the final connection to Race Track seems to be far away.

At least it will make it getting to the soccer fields and such that much easier.
