| The FDOT public meeting is focused on the Pine Island Road Shared-Use Path Feasibility Study which covers Pine Island Road from Stringfellow Road to Veterans Memorial Parkway. FDOT is studying the feasibility of connecting the existing shared-use path network on Pine Island to Matlacha and Cape Coral.
This project is also evaluating potential “complete streets” elements to be incorporated into the corridor.
A “complete street” prioritizes travel and safety for all users of the right of way (ROW), regardless of mode. Within a complete street, additional priority and space of the ROW is often reserved for pedestrians and cyclists to operate safely. To support these modes, complete streets will often have dedicated zones for different modes to operate, intersections and crossings that manage and prioritize all users, and a de-prioritization of vehicular traffic to ensure safety among other users.
The public workshop is being conducted to present preliminary concepts and provide the opportunity for the public to express their views and ask questions about the project. There is no formal presentation scheduled, instead, materials and concepts will be on display and the public will be able to interact with FDOT representatives.
