The new project involves landscaping work on Northwest 57 Avenue, also known as Red Road, from Northwest 183rd Street (Miami Gardens Drive) to the Broward County line. This project will cost an estimated $617,000 and last roughly four months. It includes planting trees and palm trees within the medians and along the sidewalks and grass swales.

On the turnpike, several closures related to for lane widening and construction of express lanes will affect the normal flow of traffic.
