Traffic Alert - U-Turn to Close at Checkpoint 2

Starting on Monday, March 23, Broward County’s Highway Construction & Engineering Div. will temporarily close the U-turn located before the security checkpoint on Spangler Blvd./State Road 84. During this time the U-turn closure will be evaluated to see if it improves traffic flow coming from the Convention Center Connector/westbound Spangler Blvd. If successful, the U-turn will be permanently closed to allow for the lengthening of the left turn lanes from westbound Spangler Blvd. to southbound US 1.

Learn how the energy facilities at Port Everglades operate and how they help fuel Broward County's economy.

Keeping Florida on the Move

Port Everglades has a long history of providing energy products to South Florida. Today, one-third of Florida's energy requirements, including petroleum, are stored and distributed by companies located at Port Everglades.

Every day, more than 15 million gallons of energy products, including jet fuel, gasoline and propane, are delivered on tank ships and barges. Port Everglades provides energy products to 12 counties in Florida and five international airports - keeping the entire region on the move.

Behind the scenes, 17 petroleum terminals and pipeline companies operate within the port's jurisdiction, but on private property. These companies adhere to state and federal regulations, as well as the port's tariff.

Keeping up with South Florida's demand for gasoline, jet fuel and other energy products requires an ongoing effort. Port Everglades is ready for the future with its Master/Vision Plan.
