At the north end, grade separate NB bypass lanes overtop of exiting PTH 75. If you want to mix in the PR 330 interchange there, that would work too.
Same thing at the sound end. Grade separate NB bypass lanes overtop of existing PTH 75 SB lanes.
Diamond interchange at PTH 23.

Yea does anyone have a rough idea of the population of a town along an interstate before they get more than one grade separation? I understand other factors are in play such as importance of the intersection roadway/highway but for the most part I can imagine population scaling fairly linearly with the quantity of interchanges that are built to service a town.
3 interchanges is probably too many for ~2000, and just one would probably suffice. Sure the businesses on the current 75 alignment would lose their minds but sometimes life doesn't go your way.
