    GENERAL SUBJECT MATTER TO BE CONSIDERED: The hearing is held to afford interested people an opportunity to express their views regarding the location, conceptual design, and social, economic, and environmental effects of Financial Project ID: 417878 2 22 01, otherwise known as the State Road (S.R.) 29 Project Development and Environment (PD&E) Study. The project limits include S.R. 29 from north of S.R. 82 to south of County Road 80A in Collier and Hendry Counties. Proposed improvements include widening the existing two lanes to four lanes. Project information will be on display for public comment. The no-build alternative is a viable alternative and will remain so throughout the remainder of the PD&E Study.
