The Florida Department of Transportation, District Seven is hosting a Project Advisory Group Meeting for agency stakeholders and interested parties regarding the US 19 Frontage Roads Safety Action Plan from north of 49th Street to north of SR 580 (Main Street). The Florida Department of Transportation, District Seven, in cooperation with Forward Pinellas, is conducting a safety action plan for the US 19 (SR 55) frontage roads within the study limits. The purpose of the plan is to work with the community, stakeholders, and a Project Advisory Group (PAG) to objectively evaluate possible changes to improve multimodal safety, operations, and connectivity. This study will also provide the local municipalities with recommendations for land use changes that may help facilitate the recommended multimodal improvements to the roadway. The study limits are from north of 49th Street to north of SR 580 (Main Street). The 11.5-mile segment is located in central Pinellas County and traverses through the cities of Pinellas Park, Largo, and Clearwater, as well as unincorporated Pinellas County.

During facilitated breakout sessions, there will be opportunity for PAG members to share known issues and opportunities along the corridor to inform the existing conditions analysis.
