DATE AND TIME: March 8, 2018, 5:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m.

PLACE: Orlando Marriott Lake Mary located at 1501 International Pkwy., Lake Mary, FL 32746

GENERAL SUBJECT MATTER TO BE CONSIDERED: The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), District 5, is hosting a public meeting for improvements to the Rinehart Road and County Road (C.R.) 46A intersection. The project will help make traffic flow more smoothly and safely in the area near the Interstate 4 and C.R. 46A interchange. The project will eliminate all left turns across oncoming traffic at the C.R. 46A and Rinehart Road intersection. Instead, motorists will use new signalized “mid-block U-turns” on Rinehart Road, located about 500 feet north and south of the C.R. 46A intersection, to head in their desired direction. At the meeting, maps, drawings and other important information will be available for public review. The meeting will have an open house format, where participants can visit any time between 5:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. FDOT staff and others associated with the project will be available to discuss the project and answer questions. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions regarding the construction. There will not be a formal presentation. Participants may provide public comments directly to public communication staff at any time during the meeting. Written comments from all interested parties will be accepted by the department at the public meeting and for a period of ten (10) days after the public meeting. Comments should be addressed to: J. Todd Helton, P.E., Project Manager, by mail 719 S. Woodland Blvd., Mail Station 542, DeLand, Florida 32720 or via email at [e-mail].
