Sarasota County is preparing a major rehabilitation project for the Manasota Beach Road drawbridge, which hasn’t seen a major touch-up in over two decades.

The project is set to cost $9,428,688 – 64% of that will be footed by a grant from the U.S. Department of Transportation, $2,980,000 from the Resilient SRQ program’s federal hurricane recovery dollars, and the rest will come from Sarasota County’s infrastructure surtax.
