The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) is developing the design for two roadway projects. The project limits are along State Road (SR) 968/West Flagler Street from NW/SW 75 Avenue to NW/SW 27 Avenue, in Miami-Dade County. The project identification numbers are 429194-1-32-01 and 425271-3-52-01. The proposed work includes: full-width resurfacing of the road; closures of abandoned driveways; construction of pedestrian refuge islands at side streets; and installation of countdown pedestrian signals and pedestrian detectors. Construction is expected to begin in September 2017 and last about 10 months. The estimated cost of both projects is $4.5 million. The public meeting will be held as an open house and attendees are welcome to arrive any time between 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. to review the proposed plans and project displays. FDOT representatives will be available to discuss the project, answer questions, and receive comments on the proposed improvements. Public participation is solicited without regard to race, color, national origin, age, sex, religion, disability or family status.
