Osceola County Road 530
Branching northeast from U.S. 192/441 through east Kissimmee, Osceola County Road 530 follows Simpson Road to the Buenaventura Lakes community and the end of Osceola Parkway (CR 522). Prior to March 2014, Boggy Creek Road overtook the unsigned county road east from CR 522 between the Orange County line to the north and and East Lake Tohopekaliga and Fells Cove to the south. This section of roadway was renamed as an extension of Simpson Road to alleviate motorist confusion.
Simpson Road Phase 1, an Osceola County project, widens Simpson Road between Myers Road and Boggy Creek Road at the Orange County line. The 1.2 mile long expansion project adds two 11-foot wide travel lanes separated by a narrow median and 10 foot wide sidewalks. Construction runs to late 2024.1
Straddling the county border along Boggy Creek Road, CR 530 ties into CR 15 (Narcoossee Road) south of Medical City in Orlando and north of Narcoossee. CR 530 is an extension of SR 530, the state road counterpart of U.S. 192 west from Kissimmee to U.S. 27 at Four Corners.
The Boggy Creek Road Widening Project reconstructs the two lane road into a four lane boulevard. 5.9 miles in length, construction started in 2024 and runs through 2026.2
