Project Description: Evaluate a multi-use trail along State Road (S.R.) 40 from Levy Hammock Road to U.S. 17.

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) is conducting a corridor planning study to assess alternative alignments for a multi-use trail from Levy Hammock Road to U.S. 17, approximately 27 miles. At this second Project Visioning Team (PVT) meeting, the project team will provide a brief overview of the purpose and need of the project, discuss the two alternatives under consideration and review the evaluation of each alternative.

Your interest in this study is truly valued and appreciated. This is a working meeting with the FDOT staff and PVT members, which is open to public attendance.
