Pablo Road bridge rail work in Ponte Vedra Beach is set to start in November, with flaggers; FDOT listed Beach Boulevard night lane closures through Nov. 30.

Last checked 2026-11-02, against St. Johns County’s road closure and right-of-way notices (linked from its road closures page), FDOT District 2’s North Florida Road and Lane Closure Report, FL511 and the National Weather Service in Jacksonville’s active alerts. FDOT has still not posted a report newer than Oct. 17-23, so this week’s state lane closures could not be confirmed from it. FL511’s construction and closure lists showed nothing in St. Johns County or at the Beaches on Nov. 2. This page is refreshed weekly.

Ponte Vedra Beach’s main roads are a mix of state highways run by the Florida Department of Transportation’s District 2, such as State Road A1A, and county roads run by St. Johns County, such as County Road 210, Palm Valley Road and Pablo Road. For live conditions, crashes and cameras, use FL511 or dial 511.

Pablo Road bridge: guardrail work expected to start in November

St. Johns County posted a right-of-way notice Oct. 27 for work on the Pablo Road bridge in Ponte Vedra Beach.

  • What: crews will replace the timber guardrail and handrail on the north and south sides of the bridge with a concrete barrier wall.
  • When: expected to start in November and last about three months. The county has not posted a start date.
  • Traffic: intermittent flagging while crews are working, and closed sidewalks during active construction. The notice does not describe a full road closure or a detour.
  • Who to call: St. Johns County project contact Heather Hilley, 904-209-0292, hhilley@sjcfl.us.

People who walk or bike across the bridge should plan for the closed sidewalk once work starts. We will add the start date when the county posts it.

Weather on the coast

The coastal flood advisory that ran until early Sunday has ended. The National Weather Service in Jacksonville has a high surf advisory for the Northeast Coastal St. Johns County beaches, which take in Ponte Vedra Beach, until 7 p.m. Monday, with breaking waves of 7 feet and localized beach erosion. A high rip current risk runs through Tuesday evening. Neither St. Johns County nor FDOT had announced a weather-related road closure in Ponte Vedra Beach on Nov. 2.

State road work in and near Ponte Vedra Beach

FL511 listed no scheduled road work or lane closures on state roads in St. Johns County on Nov. 2. FDOT’s last posted weekly report, for Oct. 17-23, also listed none in Ponte Vedra Beach.

That report listed one longer closure in St. Augustine: King Street, closed from U.S. 1 to Malaga Street through late 2026 for bridge work, with a posted detour. FDOT has not posted a newer report, so we could not reconfirm it this week.

Nearby at the Beaches (Duval County)

FDOT’s Oct. 17-23 report listed these night closures on Beach Boulevard for drivers heading north into Jacksonville Beach, about two miles north, running through Nov. 30. FL511 did not list them on Nov. 2 and FDOT has not posted a newer report, so check FL511 before a late-night trip.

Where When What
Beach Boulevard at 19th Street, Jacksonville Beach 9 p.m. to 5 a.m. nightly through Nov. 30 Eastbound lane closures for road work

FDOT’s work zone feed also listed resurfacing and bike lane and sidewalk work on State Road A1A (Mayport Road) from Atlantic Boulevard north toward Dutton Island Road in Atlantic Beach, about seven miles north, scheduled to end Monday, Nov. 2.

Recently finished

  • County Road 210 widening: St. Johns County held a ribbon-cutting Sept. 30 for the $42.5 million project that widened about three miles of CR 210 from two lanes to four between Old CR 210/Greenbriar Road and Cimarrone Boulevard, west of I-95. It added bridges, sidewalks on both sides and signals at Stillwater Boulevard/South Hampton, Shearwater and Greenbriar Road/Old CR 210, the county said.
  • Palm Valley Road at Preservation Trail and Colonnade, Nocatee: a new traffic signal with pedestrian and golf cart crossings was finished in August, the county said.

On the list for future funding

The county’s 2025 List of Priority Projects, approved Dec. 16, 2025, asks FDOT and the North Florida Transportation Planning Organization to fund State Road A1A intersection improvements and State Road 210 widening among its top regional projects, the county said. Being on the list does not mean a project is funded or scheduled.
