MOUNT DORA – Lake County is hosting the Alternative Concepts Public Workshop for the Round Lake Road Project Development and Environment (PD&E) study from 5:30-7:30 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 25 at the Mount Dora Community Building, located at 520 N. Baker St., Mount Dora.
The study focuses on proposed transportation improvements along a nearly 5-mile stretch on Round Lake Road from Meadowland Drive in Orange County to Wolf Branch Road in Lake County, as well as the proposed improvements on a new alignment north of Wolf Branch Road to the north of State Road 44. The study will review how people and vehicles travel in this area and identify potential mobility and operational solutions.
The open-house style public workshop will present alternative transportation improvement concepts and initial evaluations. This workshop will provide residents an opportunity to express their views concerning the social, economic and environmental impacts of the proposed Round Lake Road improvements. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions and offer input to the study team. There will be no formal presentation, however, an informational video will run continuously throughout the evening. Additional information is available online, and the workshop displays and video will be posted at www.roundlakeroadstudy.com within a week after the workshop.
