This public hearing is being held in accordance with Federal Executive Orders 11990 and 11988 to afford interested persons an opportunity to express their views concerning the location; conceptual design; and social, economic, and environmental effects of the SR 50 PD&E Study in Lake County, Florida (Financial Management Number 427056-1-22-01 and ETDM Number 6251). The project involves the realignment of SR 50 to north of Downtown Groveland. The proposed roadway improvements would re-align SR 50 to the north of Downtown Groveland. This change also would include a new intersection of SR 50 and SR 19 that would correct the existing turning movement deficiencies for trucks and general traffic. Once the realignment is constructed, Broad Street and Orange Street (existing SR 50) would become the jurisdiction of the City of Groveland and would no longer be part of the state road system. As part of this study, the access management classification is expected to change along this segment of SR 50 from Access Class 4 (through Downtown Groveland) to Access Class 5 (along the new realigned segment of SR 50). The public hearing for this proposed change in access management classification will be held concurrent with the SR 50 PD&E Study public hearing. Public participation is solicited without regard to race, color, national origin, age, sex, disability or family status.
