The Florida Department of Transportation District 2 announces a workshop to which all persons are invited.

DATE AND TIME: March 30, 2017, 4:30 p.m. – 6:30 p.m.

PLACE: FDOT Urban Office Training Facility, 2198 Edison Avenue, Jacksonville, FL 32204

GENERAL SUBJECT MATTER TO BE CONSIDERED: The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) is conducting a Project Development & Environment (PD&E) Study to evaluate the addition of general purpose lane capacity improvements along I-10 from I-295 east to I-95, approximately 5 miles in Duval County. I-10 is a limited access facility that provides east-west access to and from the City of Jacksonville. This portion of I-10 connects downtown Jacksonville with the western urbanized area of Jacksonville and Duval County.

This segment of I-10 experiences peak period congestion due to demand that exceeds capacity. With expectations of continued traffic congestion, this PD&E study is to evaluate the addition of general purpose lanes to provide capacity improvements and relief to congestion.

The environmental review, consultation, and other actions required by applicable federal environmental laws for this project are being, or have been, carried out by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) pursuant to 23 U.S.C. §327 and a Memorandum of Understanding dated December 14, 2016 and executed by the Federal Highway Administration and FDOT.

Public participation is sought without regard to race, color, sex, age, religion, national origin, disability or family status.
