    GENERAL SUBJECT MATTER TO BE CONSIDERED:

    Financial Management No.430185-1-22-01

    Project Description:State Road 33 from Old Combee Road to North of Tomkow Road

    This alternatives workshop affords the public the opportunity to express their views about the location, conceptual design, and social, economic, and environmental effects of the proposed widening of State Road (SR) 33 in Polk County. Information on the alternatives being considered to expand the existing two-lane roadway to a four-lane divided roadway will be on display at the workshop. Reconstruction of the SR 33/Interstate 4 (I-4) interchange will be evaluated as part of the study. The proposed interchange improvements involve replacing the I-4 bridges over SR 33 and reconstructing portions of I-4 approaching the interchange. The potential addition of a median down the middle of SR 33 requires the development of an access management plan. This plan will identify the locations of median openings. Bicycle and pedestrian facilities are included in the potential widening of SR 33. As always, the no-build alternative will remain an option throughout the study.
