South Dixie Highway Streetscape

WGI provided urban design and led public outreach for the 1.5-mile South Dixie Highway Lane Elimination project. With new infill development, active neighborhoods, and numerous local businesses along the corridor, the City aimed to create a safer, more walkable streetscape with wider sidewalks, enhanced landscaping, and improved access to shops and restaurants.

Working closely with FDOT and the City, WGI used roadway plans and detailed site analysis to master plan landscape and pedestrian areas, identifying where planting zones could be expanded and where sidewalk space needed to be prioritized. The streetscape and landscape design carefully addressed corridor infrastructure constraints while supporting the identity of adjacent businesses. A curated plant palette established a cohesive streetscape character while allowing flexibility to complement individual properties.
