These improvements are being evaluated as part of an effort to provide congestion relief in-advance of the current project in design for the widening project on John Young Parkway from Pleasant Hill Road to Portage Street (FPID 418403-3) in Osceola County. The proposed interim improvements include construction of a new roadway within the southeast quadrant of the existing John Young Parkway and Pleasant Hill Road intersection. This new roadway will help relieve congestion and connect the existing John Young Parkway/Oaks Boulevard signal to a new signal located at the existing Fern Drive and Pleasant Hill Road intersection. The open house will be held on Tuesday, November 5, 2019, from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at Valencia College, Poinciana Campus - 3255 Pleasant Hill Road, Room 1-125, Kissimmee, FL 34746.

The informational open house is being conducted to seek community input and provide interested persons an opportunity to express their views about the project.
