The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) completed a Project Development & Environment (PD&E) Re-evaluation Study for proposed improvements to US 19 (SR 55) from 66th Avenue North to SR 690 / 118th Avenue North in Pinellas County. This project is a re-evaluation of a PD&E study originally completed in 1990. Re-evaluations verify that the study results are in compliance with applicable Federal and State laws before moving into a production phase for the area. This re-evaluation serves as a check on the commitments made by FDOT during the original study process. The re-evaluation documents compliance with Federal laws and any changes that may have occurred since the approval of the original final recommendations.

The US 19 PD&E Re-evaluation Study began in February 2016. The project activities included collecting information, developing roadway improvement alternatives and evaluating the potential environmental and social effects of the “no-build” and “build” alternatives.

A public hearing was conducted on Tuesday, October 30, 2018 from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at the Tampa Bay Regional Planning Council.

On October 30, 2019, FDOT’s Office of Environmental Management (OEM) approved the US 19 PD&E Re-evaluation.
