GENERAL SUBJECT MATTER TO BE CONSIDERED: The Florida Department of Transportation, District One, is holding a public hearing for the US 41 (14th Street West) design project 69th Avenue West to Cortez Road (SR 684) West in Manatee County. All members of the public are invited to attend.

FDOT will add pedestrian refuge islands, or short raised areas, to the bi-directional left turn lane of US 41 within the project limits. Pedestrians can use this area to wait while crossing US 41 in areas other than intersections with signals. The improvements will not require the acquisition of additional right-of-way and or significantly change existing access to properties. The Department sent notices to all property owners and interested people located at least 300 feet on either side of US 41 within the project limits. The hearing is developed in compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and related statutes. Public participation is solicited without regard to race, color, national origin, age, sex, religion, disability or family status.
