The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) will hold a public meeting regarding project plans on the Truck and Freight Alternative Site Analysis Project Development and Environment (PD&E) Study on Thursday, April 28, 2022, at 5:30 p.m. The purpose of this project is to evaluate and recommend potential truck and freight parking site alternatives along the I-4 corridor that are viable for private and public operator use.
Additional public meetings for prospective truck parking site alternatives along the I-4 corridor are scheduled in April 2022 for Orange, and Osceola Counties. A public meeting was held in Seminole County in March 2022. Each public meeting for this project will include the same information and presentation on potential sites across all counties.
