The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) has initiated a Project Development and Environment (PD&E) Study for CR 510 from 58^th Avenue to East of US-1 in Indian River County. The purpose of this study is to develop viable alternatives to widen CR 510 from 58^th Avenue to east of SR 5/US 1 from two to four lanes as well as evaluate the addition of multimodal features such as sidewalks, bicycle lanes, and multi-use paths. Intersection improvements at 58^th Avenue and at SR 5/US 1 will also be evaluated. The study will evaluate alternatives to improve capacity for local and regional travel, freight movement, emergency evacuation, and to enhance economic development in northeast Indian River County.

Project Development Process

WHAT IS A PD&E STUDY?

A PD&E Study is FDOT's procedure for complying with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969, and associated federal and state laws and regulations. During this phase, FDOT performs preliminary engineering, evaluates the projects impacts to the social, cultural, natural, and physical environments, completes interagency coordination, and engages the public. Public involvement is a key aspect throughout the life of a project. The objectives of a PD&E study are to support decisions concerning if, where, and what should be built to address the identified transportation needs.
