The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) South Sumter Trail project includes a 12’ paved trail adjacent to SR 471 from SR 50 to CR 478, a length of 4.0 miles. The final alignment of the trail will be on either the east or west side of the road. The South Sumter Connector Trail is a multi-use trail that will close the 22-mile gap between the Good Neighbor Trail in Hernando County and the Van Fleet Trail in Sumter County. The South Sumter Connector Trail is part of the larger Coast to Coast Trail, which extends approximately 250 miles across the peninsula of Florida from the Gulf of Mexico in St. Petersburg to the Atlantic Ocean in the vicinity of the Canaveral National Seashore?.
