The Department of Transportation, District 2 announces a hearing to which all persons are invited.

DATE AND TIME: October 13, 2008, 6:30 p.m.

PLACE: Bradford County Public Library, 456 W. Pratt Street, Starke, Florida

GENERAL SUBJECT MATTER TO BE CONSIDERED: This hearing is being held to afford interested persons the opportunity to express their views concerning the location, conceptual design and social, economic and environmental effects of Financial Project ID Numbers 420531-1 and 417311-1, otherwise known as S.E. 144th Avenue from State Road 100 to U.S. 301, Bradford County, Florida. The Department is currently conducting a Project Development and Environment Study of S. E. 144th Avenue from SR 100 to U.S. 301. The objective of the proposed improvements is to pave S. E. 144th Avenue from SR 100 to U.S. 301 just south of the City of Starke. This would provide an alternative to traveling through the failing intersections of downtown Starke. The proposed roadway would consist of two 12 foot wide travel lanes with shoulders, constructed within 100 feet of right of way. Therefore, right of way will be required for this project. This hearing is being held to present the study findings, discuss the Department’s recommendations and receive public input. This project is being developed in compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
