FDOT evaluated several different alternatives to widen the existing 2 lanes to 4 lanes and a new roadway. • Design Refinements The design requirements take place in the northern section of the project from County Road 846 or Immokalee Rd to SR 82. There have been no refinements made South of County Road 846 (Immokalee Road). Many of the project alternatives that were considered were eliminated based on in-depth environmental and engineering analysis and community input. This project was included in the Moving Florida Forward Infrastructure Initiative. Refinements include a 12-foot shared use path, 10-foot shared use path, roundabouts, widen lane by one foot, design speeds, and nine pond sites. FDOT anticipates completion of this PD&E Study in Summer 2024. • Previous Engagements FDOT offered multiple opportunities for the community to provide input during the project. Project Newsletters were sent to community members within the study area, as well as to other interested parties. Seven newsletters have been sent overall. FDOT is required to advertise in a variety of other ways for each public meeting. • Next Steps A public meeting for the design segments is tentatively scheduled for 2025.

She also said that information is mailed to those who own property along the projects.

She understands that the mailouts are provided to those who are within the project area, however, with the magnitude of this project, this information should have been sent to the whole Immokalee Area.

Ms. Anne Goodnight provided a comment and said that staff should take notice and be sure that the roundabouts and roadways are convenient enough for Semi-Trucks to come in and out to pick up their produce.

The northern portion has been split into two segments for design. Blue segment: CR 846 to SR 29 Bypass Junction Purple segment: south of New Market Road to SR 82 Refinements since the public hearing include: •A 12-foot shared use path for the entire blue segment (both sides of the road) •A 10-foot shared use path for the entire purple segment (both sides of the road)•Revising the following intersections to a roundabout design:•CR 846 •Gopher Ridge Road •New Market Road •Widening the travel lanes for a portion of the blue segment by one foot (from 11 to 12 feet)•Because of wider lanes, design speeds on the blue segmentare increased to 45-55 miles per hour and unified on the purple segment to 55 miles per hour •Adding nine pond sites - necessary for stormwater runoff Legend PD&E Preferred Alternative Alternativa preferida de PD&E South of CR 846 to SR 29 Bypass Junction South of New Market Road West to SR 82 Concurrent Design Sections N Intersección con la circunvalación de CR 846 hasta SR 29 Desde el sur de New Market Road West hasta SR 82 ENDPD&E LIMITS BEGINPD&E LIMITS Oil Well Rd Lake Trafford Rd Ne w M a r k e t R d W Westclox S t Experimental Rd SR 29 Bypass Junction Johnson Rd Gopher Ridge RdFarm Workers Way Seminole C r o s si n g T r ail Agriculture WayKaicasa EntranceImmokaleeRegionalAirport ImmokaleeRegionalAirport 29 29 82 29 846 COUNTY COLLIER Roundabouts Rotonda Project History FDOT began this PD&E study in June 2007. Throughout the study, many alternatives were evaluated and eliminated based on in-depth environmental and engineering analyses and community input. Following the public hearing, held on November 15, 2018, Central Alternative #2 was selected as the Preferred Alternative. However, based on comments received at the hearing and further coordination with Collier County, a portion of this alternative was shifted to avoid impacts to the Immokalee Airport Park. The northern portion of the project is funded for design. To meet current FDOT design standards, refinements were made to this section. Ajustes al proyecto Los ajustes a continuación solo aplican a la parte norte, desde la carretera del condado (County Road, o CR) 846/Immokalee Road hasta SR 82. En el diseño, la parte norte se ha dividido en dos segmentos. Segmento azul: Intersección con la circunvalación de CR 846 hasta SR 29 Segmento morado: Desde el sur de New Market Road hasta SR 82 Los ajustes realizados desde la audiencia pública incluyen: •Una vía de uso compartido de 12 pies para todo el segmento azul (ambos lados de la carretera)•Una vía de uso compartido de 10 pies para todo el segmentomorado (ambos lados de la carretera) •El cambio a un diseño de rotonda vial a las siguientes intersecciones: •CR 846•Gopher Ridge Road•New Market Road•Ampliación de un pie (de 11 a 12 pies) de los carriles viales en parte del segmento azul •Debido a los carriles más anchos, las velocidades especificadas en el diseño del segmento azul se aumentarán a 45-55 millas por hora y en el segmento morado se unificarán a 55 millaspor hora•Se agregarán nueve sitios de estanques de retención, necesarios para recoger la escorrentía de aguas pluviales Historial del proyecto FDOT comenzó este estudio de PD&E en junio de 2007. Durante el estudio, muchas alternativas se evaluaron y se eliminaron. Después de la audiencia pública celebrada el 15 de noviembre de 2018, se seleccionó la Alternativa Central Nro. 2 como la Alternativa Preferida. Sin embargo, al considerar los comentarios recibidos en dicha audiencia y tras coordinar con el condado de Collier, parte de esta alternativa se desplazó para evitar impactar en el Parque del Aeropuerto de Immokalee. El diseño de la parte norte del proyecto está financiado. Para cumplir con las normas de diseño actuales, se efectuaron ajustes a esta sección. Los detalles de estos ajustes se encuentran en la página interior.
