The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) invites you to attend a public information meeting concerning the proposed development of an Action Plan for State Road (S.R.) 750 (Airport Boulevard) from S.R. 8A (I-110) to the Pensacola International Airport in Escambia County, Florida. The meeting will be held Tuesday, April 22, 2014 from 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. CDT, at the Hilton Garden Inn, 1144 Airport Boulevard, Pensacola. This meeting will include an informational video, followed by an informal open house. The intent of this meeting will be to provide current information on the project process and schedule. Representatives from FDOT will be available to provide a project update, answer questions, and receive comments. The purpose of the Action Plan is to guide the development of a multi-modal transportation system that will serve the transportation needs of the corridor; provide for the efficient and effective movement of freight; and foster economic growth and development in the region. The plan will also seek enhancement of regional mobility, while minimizing other environmental impacts that might occur from roadway construction. The intent of the plan is to define and recommend improvements to bring S.R. 750 (Airport Boulevard) into compliance with the Strategic Intermodal System (SIS) Standards of the FDOT, as well as to analyze alternatives to preserve the traffic level of service in the study area through the year 2040. State Road 750 is currently designated as a SIS Connector from I-110 to North 12th Avenue. At this stage in the study, data collection and traffic analysis for existing and future conditions has been completed, and draft alternatives are being developed.
