The new road way that’s accompanying the new Walmart is beginning to materialize. If you remember, concurrent with the new Walmart in Panama City Beach next to Pier Park, Powell Adams road is getting the same treatment as the CRA reconstructed roadways found elsewhere on the beach. Wow, that was a mouthful.
The new roadway will be four lanes with a curbed median and a traffic signal at the Pamama City Beach Parkway (Back Beach Road) intersection. There will be sidewalks, street lights and all underground utilities.

This will be an exceptionally nice additional entrance experience for Pier Park.
Pictures.
I know it doesn’t seem like much to look at now, but what you do see is the beginnings of something that will be very beautiful. If you’ve seen what they’ve done in the other CRA areas, you know this will be a much needed transformation of a very heavily used road right next to what some have begun to call “downtown Panama City Beach.”
Over the coming months, the vantage point of which these photos were taken will change dramatically.
To the right of this shot is the Walmart building, and to the left is Target. That roadway on the left is the existing Powell Adams roadway.
This shot is facing south with Walmart to the left and Target to the right.
