Subject:	The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) invites you to a public meeting for the County Line Project Development and Environment (PD&E) Study from Amberjack Boulevard to Frontage Road South in Polk and Hillsborough Counties. This meeting is being held to provide the public with an additional opportunity to participate and comment to gain more feedback that is critical for our study. The County Line Road Feasibility Study has advanced into the PD&E phase and is now referred to as the County Line Road PD&E Study. The purpose of this project is to evaluate the separation of CSX A-Line railroad and County Line Road in Polk and Hillsborough Counties. This study includes traffic and pedestrian improvements along both County Line Road and US 92. The County Line Road study limits extend from Amberjack Boulevard north to Frontage Road South. These proposed improvements are intended to enhance safety for the traveling public along County Line Road by separating the vehicle and pedestrian movements from the railroad crossing. The preliminary alternatives were developed and will be presented at this public meeting along with providing the community with an opportunity to meet the project team and provide comment. IN-PERSON OPTION: Tuesday, July 15, 2025 Anytime between 5 -7 p.m. Hilton Garden Inn Lakeland – Miller Room, 3839 Don Emerson Dr, Lakeland, FL 33811 This will include a looping video (no formal presentation) and the project team will be available for discussion.
