WHAT'S HAPPENING
The City of Miami Beach Flamingo Park Softball Field project is under construction. The project includes improved lighting and walkways throughout the park. The contractor is planning to close 30-50 foot sections of the walkway median, in the order depicted in the map image herein, to install new pedestrian lights. As part of this, a temporary ADA walkway will be installed for access to the Pickle Ball and Paddle Ball Facility. Temporary fencing will be installed at each section for protection as the work progresses. We anticipate this work (all ten sections) will take approximately six weeks total.
PROJECT OVERVIEW
The general scope of work for the Flamingo Park Softball Field project includes enhancing drainage, regrading the field, installing new artificial turf, upgrading the dugouts and bleachers, replacing the existing fence with taller fencing and netting, adding new sports lighting and park lighting, new landscaping, and replacing concrete sidewalks.
The entire project is funded through the 2018 G.O. Bond with a construction budget of $6,430,570.30.
WHAT TO EXPECT
- Work hours are weekdays from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Extended time is subject to city approval and community notification.
- Sections will be worked on subsequently in the order depicted. Each section will take approx. 3 - 7 days for completion depending on complexity underground. All pathway lighting sections are expected for completion in approximately two months.
- Schedules can change due to inclement weather or unforeseen circumstances.
- Please use caution while walking through the park, especially in the vicinity of construction work zones.
