WAUSAU — The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) will hold a State 77 public information meeting Thursday from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. at the Wausau Town Hall, 1607 Second Ave.
The meeting is being held to allow participants an opportunity to review proposed improvements to State 77 from the Washington County Line to north of County Road 279 (Moss Hill Road), in Washington County.
The intent of the project is to widen six miles of State 77 from two to four lanes with two 12-foot travel lanes in each direction, 10-foot outside shoulders (five-foot paved), eight-foot inside shoulders (two-foot paved) and a 40-foot grassed median. The project is currently scheduled for construction in 2020.
There will not be a formal presentation, however, FDOT representatives will be available to discuss proposed improvements, answer questions, and receive comments. Maps, drawings, and other project information will be on display.
