    GENERAL SUBJECT MATTER TO BE CONSIDERED: The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) will hold a public hearing regarding proposed safety improvements at the intersection of Eau Gallie Boulevard (S.R. 518) and Pinewood Road. Proposed improvements consist of converting the full median opening to a bi-directional opening that allows eastbound traffic on Eau Gallie Boulevard to make a left turn onto Pinewood Road, and westbound traffic to make a left turn into the shopping plaza. Traffic from Pinewood Road will only be able to turn right onto Eau Gallie Boulevard. These safety improvements will help reduce the number of conflict points at the intersection.

    The public hearing will be Tuesday, December 3, 2019, at Graceway Church 938 Lytton Road, Melbourne, FL 32934. The hearing will begin as an informational open house at 5:00 p.m. where displays and other project information will be available for review. Staff also will be available to discuss the project and answer questions. A presentation will begin at 6:00 p.m., followed by public comments.

    A court reporter will be present to record proceedings, and assist with comments, as part of the project record. Written comments can be submitted at the hearing, sent by mail to Dave Mixon, Florida Department of Transportation, 719 S. Woodland Boulevard, M.S. 562, DeLand, FL 32720-6834; or emailed to Dave.Mixon@dot.state.fl.us no later than Friday, December 13, 2019.
