It’s a totally different 4 lane beast with 4 exit entrances to tend with and the possibility of toll installations as well.
The Villages developer has the contract to build the 470 bridge over the turnpike. They are expanding this to 4 lanes so a completely new bridge will be needed. A golf cart path over the bridge makes sense. I trust Don Wiley's opinion.
