Ward 2 Recent Developments

Hanson Street Extension is now open.  Eastwood Golf Course was renovated to accommodate the road changes. Golfers can now safely use a tunnel to cross Hanson St.  The City of Fort Myers "Complete Streets Initiative" was followed as bicycle lanes and pedestrian sidewalks are included as part of the multi-modal transportation.
