The LAP is fully executed and the Board of County Commissioners approved the agreement on July 27, 2010 (Agenda item 16.A.12). The project was advertised on November 2, 2010, with submittals received on December 2, 2010.

The scope of work required and cost estimate has been negotiated and included in the County standard contract. A public meeting was held on September 6, 2011 with two feasible Alternatives proposed and a. third alternative was suggested. Based on input from the meeting, the favored Alternative was Alternative 1. This alignment connects the ,east and west sides of Immokalee Rd to the north through the I -75 interchange.

Alternatives Public Workshop Sept. 6, 2011 INTRODUCTION The county is studying the feasibility of a pedestrian/bicycle pathway along the north side of Immokalee Road connecting the existing sidewalk along Livingston Road to the existing path east of Northbrooke Drive. The project area is shown below. ALTERNATIVES Two alternatives are on display for review and comment. Alternative 1 consists of constructing the pedestrian /bicycle pathway along the north side of Immokalee Road. The pathway will be behind the existing guardrail /barrier wall west of the 1 -75 ramps, next to the curb and gutter within the 1 -75 interchange, and behind the guardrail east of the 1 -75 ramps. Alternative 2 consists of constructing the majority of the pathway on the north side of Cocohatchee Canal. The pathway will cross the canal at the 1 -75 interchange and be located next to the curb and gutter within the 1 -75 interchange (same as Alternative 1). The county will continue to evaluate each alternative based on engineering and environmental factors to determine the preferred location prior to preparing construction plans. Traffic signal improvements will be included at the ramps to facilitate the pedestrian /bicycle crossings.
