450782-1 U.S. 1 Project Information Handout REV

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) invites you to a project open house about proposed improvements on U.S. 1 (Ridgewood Avenue) from Beville Road (State Road (S.R.) 400) in South Daytona to north of Fairview Avenue in Daytona Beach on Wednesday, February 12.

The purpose of this project is to resurface the roadway and enhance safety along the corridor by widening bicycle lanes and adding new pedestrian crossings. Additional details are available in the attached project information handout. The open house is an opportunity for the community to learn about the project plans and provide feedback.

The open house will be held in person from 5:30 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the News-Journal Center at Daytona State College, 221 N. Beach St., Daytona Beach, FL 32114. Attendees will have an opportunity to view a looping presentation and project displays, speak with project team members, and submit comments or questions.

To provide additional flexibility for stakeholders, the FDOT is also offering online opportunities to get involved:

  • Join an online webinar at 5:30 p.m. to watch a project presentation and submit written questions or comments using the webinar questions box.  To attend using this option, register at https://fdot.cc/US_1_Improvements. Please make sure to provide adequate time to log in to view the presentation in its entirety.
  • Visit the project website at your convenience at www.cflroads.com/project/450782-1.  Visitors to the page may watch the project presentation, view project exhibits, and submit comments and questions directly to the project manager. Project materials will be available beginning Wednesday, February 12, and will be the same as what will be shared at the in-person open house. While the information will remain on the website throughout the project, please provide comments or questions by February 24, 2025, to have the comments included in the open house record.
