(Quoting Fla DOT:) Due to the catastrophic damage caused by Hurricane Ian, FDOT is committed to improving quality of life for Pine Island property owners and the community. An executive order from Governor DeSantis paved the way for urgent planning and design for permanent Pine Island Road Causeway and Bridge repairs. More information will be released as the planning process evolves. This project is a design build permanent reconstruction of the Pine Island Causeway and Little Pine Island Bridge approaches in Lee County. This project is being procured as an emergency contract pursuant to the State of Florida Governor’s Executive Order No. 22-218, as amended by Executive Order No. 22-219. The limits of the Project are CR 78 (Pine Island Road) from west of Little Pine Island Bridge (Bridge No. 120111) to west of Shoreview Drive. Roadway segments within the Project limits are owned, operated, and maintained by Lee County. Goals of the project: Hotline: (239)-214-3364 Project stakeholders: NOTE: Since Hurricane Ian, the Shared Use Feasibility Study project team is re-evaluating next steps.
Public Involvement: We have created a project hotline, email, website, and dedicated community outreach team to serve you throughout this process. Stakeholders are an integral part of the design process. When design plans are completed, a public meeting will be scheduled so the Community can review and provide public comment.
