The OP seemed to be talking about safety. I think most people would agree that using an underpass to go from one side of Meggison to the other side (do you cross a road when you go underneath it) is much safer than crossing at grade like Morse north of 466 and Meggison south of Sawgrass.

It would be interesting to find out the reason why Meggison is four lanes with a median north of Sawgrass and two lanes with no median south of Sawgrass.
Maybe to divert traffic across the new Turnpike bridge and roads on that side (past the new medical center)?

Is McNeal Dr or Bexely Trail going to be 4 lane?
