City of Wauchula issued the following announcement on July 15.
Your participation is valued!
The Florida Department of Transportation - District One is holding a community workshop on August 3, 2021, between 5 PM and 8 PM at Wauchula’s Historic Train Depot. The focus of the workshop will be to clarify the community’s aspirations for the downtown core and the broader area as it relates to economic development, community character, and safe accommodations for pedestrians, bicyclists and vehicles.
Based on the community aspirations and objectives, opportunities to incorporate potential design features into resurfacing and rehabilitation projects scheduled for fiscal years 2024 and 2025 will be defined. Potential provisions could include bicycle and pedestrian accommodations, speed management strategies, intersection operational improvements, landscaping, hardscaping, and other elements that align with the community’s vision for the corridor.
The candidate strategies and features identified by the community will be evaluated, and feasible project elements that are supportive of the community objectives will be implemented as part of the resurfacing project. Please see contact information below for any questions.
