There is now NO chance for an interchange at CR468 & the turnpike.

The Villages (not Wildwood) will develop various sites there - regional rec center (northwest quadrant), commercial/retail (northeast quadrant) , residential (southwest and southeast quadrants).

I should add that the current plan appears to be that Buena Vista will eventually extend from CR468 down to CR470, intersecting at a point adjacent to the existing CR470/Turnpike interchange. That will be on the east side of the turnpike.

Of course, CR501 already connects CR468 to CR470, that being on the west side of the turnpike.
