Restore Traffic Flow on South Ocean Blvd
The Issue
Palm Beach Road Relief Initiative
Palm Beach residents and surrounding communities fully support necessary presidential security.
The current open-ended closure of South Ocean Boulevard (SR A1A) between South County Road and Southern Boulevard is causing:
• Daily traffic gridlock
• Reduced mobility across the island
• Strain on emergency access routes
• Disruption to residents, schools, workers, and businesses
Palm Beach’s limited residential road network — with only three bridges and a single north-south corridor — was not designed for sustained closure of a primary roadway.
This is an infrastructure and public-safety issue.
We respectfully request a proportional operating policy — consistent with approaches previously implemented in Palm Beach:
• Reopen South Ocean Blvd when the protectee is not in residence
• Use temporary closures only during active protection operations
• Provide clear public communication regarding timing and access
Palm Beach should not function indefinitely under an “until further notice” closure of a primary roadway.
Security and access can coexist.
Call to Action:
Sign to support restored traffic flow and protected emergency access.
