The Florida Department of Transportation, in cooperation with Dade City, is holding this public workshop to discuss proposed improvements to be made to US 301 from Pond Avenue to north of Long Avenue/Pioneer Museum Road in Dade City. The proposed improvements include removing old asphalt and repaving the existing roadway and safety enhancements such as intersection improvements. The project also includes traffic operational improvements such as new turn lanes, turn-lane extensions at select locations, and a proposed reduction in the number of thru lanes from 3 in each direction to 2 in each direction. Buffered bicycle lanes are also being proposed.
The workshop will have an informal, open house format. No formal presentation will be made. Draft project documents will be on display and staff will be available to discuss the project, answer questions and address individual concerns. Design is expected to be completed in the Fall of 2018 and Construction is expected to begin in the Spring of 2019.
