South End drivers get relief as A1A work ends in Palm Beach

South End residents have one fewer road construction project to navigate this season in Palm Beach. The Florida Department of Transportation has completed its project along two miles of State Road A1A between Lake Avenue and Ibis Way. The road through that area is South Ocean Boulevard, and also known as Jimmy Buffett Memorial Highway. Along with fresh pavement, the roadway has new designated bike lanes and a new traffic signal for pedestrians crossing at the Par 3 Golf Course. Most of the construction was completed in the late summer as scheduled, and all final inspections and utilities coordination were wrapped up by Sept. 25, a project spokesperson said. "New pavement, a striped bike lane and a wider concrete pathway on the west side of the roadway are improvements for motorists, cyclists and pedestrians," they said. Construction on the $5.9 million project began May 3, 2025. South End residents endured months of lane closures during the work. Another FDOT project remains underway on A1A and includes sections of South County Road and South Ocean Boulevard between Royal Palm Way and Emerald Beach Way, just south of President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago Club.

South Florida floods can ruin your parked car. Here's who pays

Choosing the perfect parking spot in South Florida is usually all about shade, until the floodwaters come. Then, it matters very much where you left your car. Whether it’s a heavy rainstorm or a high king tide — like the one expected early this week — excess water in low-lying South Florida often finds its way to a parking lot or garage. And woe to the cars left behind in drier times. Every serious flood, tow truck operators haul dozens of cars from waterlogged streets, lots and garages. It doesn’t take much water to immobilize a car, just six inches can stall an engine. A foot of water can leave a vehicle floating. But even if the spot was dry when you parked, then swamped when you returned, the bill for fixing a flooded car almost always lands with the owner of the vehicle. Aaron Alamary, president of parking management company TruPark USA, manages thousands of parking spaces between Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach. And some of them flood, he said. And yet, drivers are still the ones footing the bill, as explained in the fine print on the tickets they get from the machine or signage in the garage.
