GENERAL SUBJECT MATTER TO BE CONSIDERED: The intent of this project is to increase the vehicular capacity of the corridor as well as accommodate bicycle and pedestrian traffic. Improvements include widening 1.5 miles of the existing roadway from two to six lanes while adding medians, buffered bicycle lanes and sidewalks, water quality and treatment facilities, and a closed drainage system. The widening of State Road (S.R.) 390 east of S.R. 77 will facilitate the transition to the existing two-lane roadway. A new pedestrian overpass will be built above the six-lane roadway at Mowat Middle School. Traffic signal modifications will be made at the existing signalized intersections with a new signal installed at S.R. 390 and 14th Street/Virginia Avenue. The project is funded for right-of-way acquisition and construction.

During the informal portion of the hearing, Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) representatives will be available to discuss the project, answer questions, and receive your comments. A court reporter will also be available to receive your comments. During the formal portion of the hearing, FDOT will make a formal presentation which will be followed by public comments.
