This meeting will provide property and business owners, interested citizens, and organizations the opportunity to review project information and comment on the proposed improvements to 40th Street (SR 569/SR 599/US 41) between East 15th Avenue and East Conover Street. The meeting will be held in an informal, open house format. There will be no formal presentation. Project aerials, plan sets, and graphic exhibits will be on display for review. FDOT will be available beginning at 5:00 p.m. to discuss the project and answer questions. The 40th Street proposed improvements are being presented as two separate projects.

The following features will also be included: • The existing number of 12-foot travel lanes will be reduced from six to four; • An 8-foot dedicated bicycle lane will be added; • The addition of a 5-foot sidewalk with a 4-foot buffer from the bicycle lane. The second project, in addition to the improvements explained above, proposes traffic signals be replaced with roundabouts at the following locations: Chelsea Street, Osborne Avenue, Melburne Boulevard/26th Avenue, and 21st Avenue.
