Learn About I-4 Construction Projects in Seminole County at Informational Open House

Open House Will Be Held at Lake Mary Events Center on Oct. 23

Orlando, Fla. The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) will host an informational open house on Wednesday, Oct. 23, to provide construction information about improvements to Interstate 4 (I-4) in Seminole County. The open house will be held from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the Lake Mary Events Center, located at 260 N. Country Club Road.

These construction projects will help keep traffic flowing smoothly and safely in the area and will lay the groundwork for future improvements. The projects include reconstructing the E.E. Williamson Road bridge over I-4, adding an auxiliary lane on eastbound I-4 from the end of the I-4 Ultimate project to Lake Mary Boulevard, resurfacing eastbound I-4 from the end of the I-4 Ultimate project to County Road 46A, and from State Road 46 to east of U.S. 17-92, and resurfacing westbound I-4 from Lake Mary Boulevard to east of U.S. 17-92.

The meeting will be an open house format where attendees can visit any time between 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. FDOT staff and others associated with the project will be available to discuss the project and answer questions. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions regarding the construction. There will not be a formal presentation. Participants may provide public comments directly to project staff at any time during the informational open house.

Written comments from all interested parties will also be accepted by mail or email.
