The Florida Department of Transportation has activated two new pedestrian hybrid beacons along U.S. 192 in Melbourne and West Melbourne. The signals are designed to improve safety for pedestrians and bicyclists by increasing driver awareness at crosswalks. FDOT says three more beacons will be activated soon between I-95 and Babcock Street as part of a broader effort to reduce crashes and improve traffic flow along the corridor. Drivers are urged to use caution as the new signals are introduced.
