Medians in New Smyrna Beach have never looked better thanks to an ongoing project, paid for in part by a $387,269 FDOT grant, to beautify S.R. 44 and U.S. 1 with Silver Buttonwoods, Japanese Blueberry Trees, Crape Myrtles, Japanese Privets, and Medjool Date Palms. Now 90% finished and on track to be completed by Oct. 7, the landscape and irrigation improvements will span S.R. 44 from Sugar Mill Drive to Hidden Pines Boulevard and U.S. 1 from Industrial Park Avenue to 10th Street.
