FDOT will hold US 90 meeting tonight

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) will hold a kick-off meeting concerning proposed improvements to the U.S. 90 corridor from the intersection of Glover Lane to State Road 87S in Santa Rosa County. The meeting will be held tonight from 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. at the Santa Rosa County auditorium at 4530 Spikes Way.

According to FDOT, the meeting will include a short presentation followed by an informal open house. This project will evaluate the need for increasing the capacity for the east-west travel demands on U.S. 90. The capacity improvement to be evaluated will consist of, but isnot limited to, widening the existing facility, a new corridor, one-way pairs, additional bridging of the Blackwater River, and possibly combinations thereof. This study will also address the need for improved bicycle and sidewalk connectivity in thecounty, with connections to the Blackwater Heritage Trail and to the historical S.R. 1 Trail. Representatives from FDOT will be available to explain proposed improvements, answer questions, and receive comments.
