Public Workshop Tonight On Nine Mile Road Widening Project

December 2, 2014

The Florida Department of Transportation will hold a public meeting tonight concerning proposed improvements to Nine Mile Road to Highway 29. The meeting will be held from 5:30 until 6:30 p.m. at Plainview Baptist Church, 1101 West Nine Mile Road.

This project is intended to increase the vehicular capacity of the corridor and accommodate bicycle and pedestrian traffic. Improvements include widening 2.28 miles of Nine Mile Road from two to four lanes while adding sidewalks, improving drainage and constructing various safety upgrades along the corridor to meet current standards set by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Additionally, there will be traffic signal modifications and the construction of storm water drainage treatment facilities.

Maps, drawings and other information will be on display. There will be no formal presentation, however, representatives from FDOT will be available to discuss proposed improvements, answer questions and receive comments.
