The Picayune Strand Restoration Project, a key milestone in Florida’s environmental recovery efforts, has
been completed, marking a significant achievement in the broader Everglades restoration initiative. Spanning 55,000 acres between Alligator Alley and Tamiami Trail in southwestern Florida, this restoration project is the result of years of collaboration among USACE, the South Florida Water Management District, and a variety of local, state, and federal partners.
By removing 260 miles of roads and plugging 48 miles of canals, the project has successfully restored the natural flow of water to the region, revitalizing wetlands and improving overall water quality. ( U.S. Army Photographer Brigida I. Sanchez)
