JACKSONVILLE, Fla. Driving along J. Turner Butler Boulevard to Kernan Boulevard, depending on the time of day, can be a nightmare for commuters. But a new traffic light at the JTB and Kernan intersection is expected to help. Before the light was installed, each driver had to stop at a stop sign at the intersection, which caused major backups. The new improvements mark a milestone in an even bigger road project: the express lanes project of I-295 that will extend from State Road 9B to just north of JTB. Major milestones like this interchange improvement are really an important piece of the broader project, Ray said.
