I am not sure I see your point. As indicated in post #34, the plans for the bridges over the Florida Turnpike and 44 were published in the Sun (The Villages daily newspaper) and I believe the timeframe for golf cart access to the new areas is still in 2020. While I haven't been here as long as many others, I am pretty sure they only publish things that are actually going to happen. If none of this floats your boat then you will have to start making some phone calls to satisfy your curiosity.

I say it's probably time to stop indulging this troll. It doesn't matter what you say, they will come back with something else to further stir the pot. Fact based media reporting doesn't satisfy the question. They could probably be out there working on the turnpike bridge right now and the OP would still be here arguing that there is no proof that they will actually finish it. And what does it say about the OP, if this is such a concern with so much doubt, yet they purchased property anyway all the while complaining as if this is a deal breaker?

Dear idiot

Hello

You should really be reading TV newspaper, the Daily Sun, they have articles about plans and progress weekly if not daily. Here's a rendering of the northern most Turnpike Bridge.

When we had our LSV in spring 2011 we found the Daily Sun was in our driveway everyday courtesy of TV. After moving here June 2011 we got our subscription and I always start my day off with reading the paper. When we moved here in 2011 there no homes south of 466A. In just 7 years everything south of Colony Plaza and Pinellas Plaza has been built. In fact Buena Vista didn't even connect to 466A, it was a dead end at Turtle Mound Executive.

If a subscription is not practical to you, they have a website, here's a link.

Two bridges are being developed to traverse the Florida Turnpike. The northern bridge, shown in this rendering, will cross near the Village of De Luna, an area between Brownwood Paddock Square and the Village of Fenney, providing golf cart access to villages in the southern region.

July 23, 2018 The Daily Sun

The Developer’s promise of expanded golf cart connectivity became visible over the past week with a mobile construction crane signaling a new phase of work on the first multimodal link to the Village of Southern Oaks.

It was mid-March when The Villages development team unveiled a first look at the extensive roadway and multimodal network that will connect the community’s recreational amenities and the Developer’s commercial assets north of State Road 44 with the fast-growing neighborhoods south of the state highway.

Over the coming year, the Developer anticipates completing a multimodal path extension, reminiscent of the old steel trestle bridges, east of the Barnstorm Theater and across a Florida Department of Transportation retention pond.

It will then connect with a multimodal bridge across SR 44 and then into Southern Oaks, replete with the weathered-look of corten steel, curved trusses and large pillars, where it then will connect with a series of multimodal trails and tunnels into new neighborhoods under development.

While creating fun routes for golf cart drivers, this interconnected transportation system also plays a big role in reducing the traffic impact throughout Southern Oaks, The Villages land planner Mike Pape said.

“These structures will not only add to the ease of movement throughout The Villages community, but they will continue to be a fun, celebratory sense of arrival and departure for years to come,” he said.

Also: Southern Oaks development remains on a fast track, with the Wildwood City Commission expected to approve three final plats in the Village of DeSoto at tonight’s regularly scheduled meeting. Once approved, the development then may pull permits and begin home building within those neighborhoods. The plat applications include Unit 18, which contains 79 single-family detached lots on 49.64 acres at County Road 501 and at the southeast corner of the intersection of Fenney Way and Warm Springs Avenue (formerly County Road 468); Unit 19, which contains 81 single-family detached lots on 20.84 acres at the southwest corner of Fenney Way and Warm Springs Avenue; and Haven Villages, which contains 60 single-family detached lots on 7.24 acres to the south of Unit 19.

Also: Development work in the Village of McClure, south of DeSoto, also continues at a fast pace. The north and east entry gates are now under construction. Work has been completed at the Willow Tree Recreation Area and postal center; and the Tall Pines executive golf course starter shack, restrooms and irrigation pump station.

Also: Activity stepped up of late on the north side of Warm Springs Avenue in the Village of Marsh Bend. Construction has started on the Marsh Bend guardhouse and entry feature and the Everglades postal center.

Also: Site work started and construction drawings are being reviewed for two fast-developing projects in Southern Oaks — The Villages Grown controlled organic farming operation and District Public Safety Station 47. The Developer plans to build controlled greenhouse operations, capable of producing the highest quality organic produce with high nutrient levels for wholesale and eventual retail sales, on 86 acres at the southwest corner of State Road 44 and Morse Boulevard. And the Developer plans to build a 10,282-square-foot public safety building on a 3.5-acre site on the east side of the Morse Boulevard expansion (formerly CR 468) and about three-quarters of a mile south of SR 44.

Also: Reader interest continues to flow in at steady pace now that the Developer has started site work at the Lofts at Brownwood. Many of the callers indicated they submitted requests through the Developer’s website, thevillages.com/thelofts, for more information about the 265 age-restricted, apartment-style living units at the southeast corner of Powell Road and County Road 44A at Brownwood. It will include covered parking, a pool with pavilion, a clubhouse, a dog park and a mail center. And residents will have full access to The Villages’ amenities through a monthly amenity fee, plus golf cart access to all recreational and commercial services in the community. Because of the scope of the project, the Developer recently secured development approval from the Wildwood commission to permanently close Brownwood Boulevard from Shady Nook Run to County Road 44A. As construction progresses, the Developer also anticipates closing Shady Nook Run east of Brownwood Boulevard.

Also: New home construction will begin soon at the nearby Atwood Bungalows at Brownwood in the Village of Collier, since the Wildwood commission approved the final plat at a recent meeting.

John W, wasting your time and breath. The OP seems to think what has been in the newspaper is merely a suggestion of what the developer would like to do, but is convinced that the city, county, or state would never approve such things so they are merely pipe dreams and empty promises. The expectation seems to have been that someone here on TOTV would be privy to, and in position of, legal documents showing proof of approval for these plans. Or, just a TROLL with nothing better to do than stir the pot here.

Pipe dreams, at the end of the above newspaper article I posted, there is a small reference to Atwood Bungalows construction.

"Also: New home construction will begin soon at the nearby Atwood Bungalows at Brownwood in the Village of Collier, since the Wildwood commission approved the final plat at a recent meeting."

To show how fast things progress, a trip down to Atwood Bungalows would surprise those who haven't been there in a while. The villa wall around the community is up and you can see the roof top of dozens of CYV's already dried in, the place will be probably be done by the end of the year.

Well.... Iguess we now all agree
 

That the bridges statement was isseued by the villages,,,,,,, and not issues by the goverment, wilwwood, sumpter or the state of florida, ''


so i guess the replys stoip now, just here me,


shut up......

So you don't get more confused, Ft. Sumpter is in South Carolina, in Florida it's Sumter County we live in. My suggestion is to ask for your deposit back and go buy your home somewhere else or wait until 2020 when these improvements will be finished.

Sent a post thats its a done deal
 

Ill ask again, for the fiftheen time, all i ask is, to show me proof that the villages has been approved by built /bridges over everthing, ….geeeezee just getting tired
any info /


just a waste of time


once again .

As I already suggested, call the county or state yourself.

Ditto. This is absolutely absurd, which I suspect is what the OP had in mind all along. I've never understood people always needing to be hand-fed information.

The state or county would not have given them permission to construct the Golf Cart Bridge in Brownwood which is the access to the 1st Bridge that will cross Rt.44. As I said earlier I am also a New York retiree and haven't seen the Builder start anything that doesn't or isn't approved period. Their not dumb people that just want to throw money away.

:22yikes: Geez, this might be the most ridiculous thread I've read yet on TOTV.

City of Wildwood official site shows bridge over turnpike as part of Phase III Master Plan around page 20.
