It's a remote country road (472) turning off of 301 -- directly comparable to what you will have at 462 (which is being expanded). If you don't believe me about the traffic come and sit by the road for a few minutes (day or night).
I have never heard that before, When we orginally started Buena Vista South of 466 and tore up the old CR-113 I believe it was, we knew then that 472 would be the connector for Buena Vista and 301. That was never going to be closed. 472 has always had traffic. 462 will always have Traffic. 462 wil be expanded to 4 lane also from the prints I have seen. Just of matter of getting the approval from the Higher Ones.

Yes there was a const entrance behind Colony Plaza at one time and it was closed, but the was installed as a temporary relief to keep const traffic off odell circle. The entrance off 462 has been there for 8 years. has always been for construction traffic only. That is why the signs are there. But it will be closed after that area is built up more.
