OSCEOLA COUNTY, FL — The Lane Construction Corporation, a U.S. subsidiary of Webuild Group, announces that it has been determined the preferred team to design and construct a $582 million modified phased design-build (MPDB) contract for a key portion of the Florida Department of Transportation’s (FDOT) Moving I‑4 Forward program, a strategic effort aimed at improving safety and travel reliability along one of central Florida’s most important transportation corridors.
The newly awarded contract for Moving I-4 Forward Project 2 reconstructs and widens a 3.1-mile stretch of Interstate 4 from east of County Road 532 to west of World Drive in Osceola County. The project will reconfigure the State Road 429 interchange and provide new ramps to and from SR 538 Poinciana Parkway, all of which play a central role in regional transportation.
As part of this work, Lane will build two new express lanes in each direction along I-4, and new direct connectors between I‑4 and SR 429/SR 538 to create smoother, safer movements for both general‑use and express‑lane traffic. The final configuration will expand the roadway to four general‑use lanes and two express lanes in each direction, a change expected to ease congestion during peak travel times.
In addition to interstate improvements, the project includes widening Old Lake Wilson Road from two to four lanes, adding sidewalks and bicycle lanes on both sides to promote connectivity and safety.
