Subject:	The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) will conduct a Public Information Meeting concerning proposed improvements to SR 8 (I-10) from east of SR 291 (Davis Highway) to east of SR 10A (US 90). The purpose of the meeting is to afford interested persons an opportunity to express their views concerning the status of the design project. Plans showing the proposed improvements will be on display. The meeting will be conducted in an open house format (no formal presentation is scheduled). FDOT representatives will be available to discuss the project, receive questions, answer questions and explain the proposed improvements. Currently, FDOT proposes to widen SR 8 (I-10) from four (4) lanes to six (6) lanes from east of SR 291 (Davis Highway) to east of SR 10A (US 90). Widening along SR 8 will occur within the existing right-of-way by reducing the median from 64' to 40'. This project is approximately 2.74 miles in length and the typical section will consist of three (3) 12' lanes in each direction, 10' paved inside and outside shoulders with rumble strips, and a 40' median. The existing travel lanes and paved shoulders will be resurfaced as a part of this project. The Department is scheduled to accept bids in August 2013, with construction anticipated to begin in winter 2013. Construction duration is anticipated to be two (2) years. Additional right-of-way will be required to construct stormwater ponds and improvements along Scenic Highway.
