FDOT to hold community meeting for the Central Broward East-West Transit Study

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) will hold a community meeting to discuss transit services as part of the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) on the Central Broward East-West Transit Analysis in Broward County, Florida. The meeting will be held:

Saturday, March 27, 2010

11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.

Joseph C. Carter Park (click address for map)

The purpose of this study is to provide high-quality, high-capacity transit service on an east-west axis in central Broward County to connect the developing western side of the county to the highly populated coastal area. The proposed service extends from the Sawgrass Mills/Bank Atlantic Center in western Broward County to downtown Fort Lauderdale and the Fort Lauderdale–Hollywood International Airport in eastern Broward County.

This meeting will serve as a forum for discussing the possible benefits of improved transit service in the community. The study team will present information regarding the proposed route and possible station areas along State Road 7 (from I-595 to Broward Boulevard) and along Broward Boulevard (from State Road 7 to I-95). Information regarding routes and vehicles, as well as the environmental impact statement process, can be found on the project website: www.centralbrowardtransit.com.

Persons who require special accommodations under the Americans with Disabilities Act or persons who require translation services (free of charge) should contact FDOT’s Project Manager, Ms. Khalilah Ffrench, at (at least seven calendar days before the meeting date.
