GENERAL SUBJECT MATTER TO BE CONSIDERED: US 41 and Fruitville Road PD&E Study Public Meeting.

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), District One, will hold a public information meeting as part of the Project Development and Environment (PD&E) study to evaluate improvements to the intersection at US 41 and Fruitville Road in the City of Sarasota. All members of the public are invited to attend.

FDOT is evaluating improvements to the intersection at US 41 and Fruitville Road that would accommodate all modes of travel and provide for a better integrated transportation system as identified in the City of Sarasota’s Downtown Master Plan. The Department sent notices of the public meeting to all property owners located within at least 300 feet of the intersection and projected project boundaries. FDOT encourages all interested people to attend and express their views regarding the project and information presented.

This meeting will provide a platform to discuss the social, environmental and economic effects of the potential improvements. It will be held in an informal, open house format and will afford an opportunity for the community to learn about the project, become familiar with the study process, and offer initial feedback. Persons wishing to submit written statements, in place of or in addition to oral statements, may do so at the meeting or by sending them to: Project Manager Joshua Jester at [e-mail]. All statements postmarked on or before April 21, 2017, will become a part of the public meeting record.
