The purpose of this meeting is to give interested people the opportunity to view the proposed design. The meeting will be an informal open house. There will be a 3-D visualization of the proposed improvements that will run continuously during the meeting along with display boards of the roadway improvements. There will be no formal presentation and participants are welcome to attend anytime between 5:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. Department staff will be available to discuss the project, receive public input and to answer your questions. The improvements proposed along US 41 include two-lane roundabouts at 10th Street and 14th Street, narrower travel lanes, bicycle lanes, pedestrian crossings, sidewalk improvements on both sides of the roadway, and a new bus bay adjacent to Centennial Park. These improvements may differ slightly from the Project Development and Environment (PD&E) conceptual design based on more detailed survey information gathered during the design phase. Bus facility enhancements by others will include bus landing pads, bus shelters, bus benches, and bike racks. Implementing these improvements requires acquisition of small areas of land from the Sarasota Lawn Bowling Club, Municipal Auditorium, Centennial Park, Pioneer Park, and Whitaker Gateway Park. Some of these improvements would take place within the Central Cocoanut Historic District. As part of the design process and in accordance with Section 4(f) of the Department of Transportation Act of 1966, FDOT is seeking comments from the public concerning the effects of the project on the activities, features and attributes of the recreational resources.
