The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) District Six, in conjunction with the Florida’s Turnpike Enterprise (FTE), will conduct a public hearing for the Golden Glades Interchange Project Development and Environment (PD&E) Study from State Road (SR) 826/Palmetto Expressway eastbound to I-95 northbound (Financial Management Number 428358-1-22-01; Efficient Transportation Decision Making (ETDM) Number 11300). This Hearing is being held to allow interested persons an opportunity to express their views concerning the location, conceptual design, social, economic, and environmental effects of the proposed improvements to the Golden Glades Interchange. The public hearing will begin as an open house at 6:00 p.m. with a formal presentation at 7:00 p.m. followed by a public comment period. The primary purpose of this study is to provide a direct connection from SR 826/Palmetto Expressway eastbound to I-95 northbound and to improve the Turnpike southbound to I-95 southbound connection in order to increase mobility and reduce travel delay. The project also evaluated the feasibility of connecting potential express lanes from SR 826/Palmetto Expressway to the existing I-95 express lanes system. These improvements are in support of a separate and adjacent SR 826 PD&E Study, from I-75 to Golden Glades Interchange, currently under study and an Ultimate Master Plan to be established for this interchange. Draft project documents will be available for review from September 11, 2013 to October 14, 2013 at the following locations: FDOT District Six, 1000 NW 111 Avenue, Room 6251, Miami, FL 33172, Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and the North Dade Regional Library, 2455 NW 183rd Street, Miami Gardens, FL 33056, Monday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Tuesday and Wednesday - 1:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Draft documents will also be available on the project’s website, www.fdotmiamidade.com/goldengladesstudy and on display at the public hearing.
