Meeting Date: Tun 0121, 2001 Division: ROM
Bulk Item: No X Department: District Five
AGENDA ITEM WORDING: Discussion item: Request to send FDOT and Governor
Bush a request to uncouple the 18 mile stretch and the improvements on
County Road 905.
ITEM BACKGROUND: By not starting the radius bend at Ocean Reef as soon as
possible, FDOT is placing the citizens of Monroe County and its visitors in
a dangerous position without an adequate alternate escape route. It has
been impossible to come to agreement on the 18 mile stretch. While this
process continues, FDOT must immediately begin the construction of the
CR 905 radius to provide a safe alternate evacuation route capable of
handling 1400 cars per hour.
