Causeway There is a proposed
causeway over the
Indian River Lagoon east of U.S. Route 1, that would extend the
state road for two miles (3 km). If it was built, the route would be approximately long totaled. Because of a
condominium community on the
barrier island, it would steer away from it and head directly east–west to
State Road A1A.
Improvements In February 2017, the town of
Malabar, Florida sent a packet of information to Florida's governor
Rick Scott about the numerous problems plaguing the eastern portion of the road. This included recommendations to expand the current two lanes to four in order to align with the portion of road in
Palm Bay, Florida as well as adding various traffic control features at several dangerous intersections (such as Weber Road), installing an additional turning lane for Palm Bay Hospital and adding a caution light at the Malabar Fire Department. ==Major intersections==
