As for the part going from TV to 301, it is the same contractor who did the 441 project. So expect that to be done 2 weeks after hell freezes over.

I feel sorry for the business impact. I used to eat breakfast at the Coffee House a lot. But because of the challenge in getting there I go to Fruitland Park Cafe now. I just hope they don't screw them both up to the point I have to find a Villages option for breakfast.
I may be wrong but as I recall the plan for widening 466A to 441 starts with construction as you indicated from Colony to just past the Micro Track Rd, then Lake County starts at the other end at 441 and comes toward the Villages but stops approx 1/2 mile short of the initial construction from Colony. That 1/2 mile in between has not been funded. Either way, this looks like a disaster.
