COLLIER COUNTY, Fla. — Public input is needed for plans to connect Livingston to 41 and Old 41 so that there are sufficient right-of-way and paved pathways, providing the safest option for pedestrians and cyclists.

A public meeting will be held from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m., Wednesday, Jan. 13 at the North Collier Regional Park, Exhibit Hall, 15000 Livingston Road, Naples. There will not be a formal presentation, but attendees may review the project displays and talk one-on-one with the design team members.

Informational materials and additional supporting materials are available online through the Collier County website.

With CDC and the Department of Health recommendations for social distancing in mind, a limited number of people will be able to enter the meeting room at one time (approximately 40).

Community members are asked to please sign-up for a specific time here, or by contacting the Collier County Growth Management Department at 239-252-8192. Everyone attending is also asked to wear a face mask. For those that do not have one, a face mask will be provided.

Proponents of the project feel the speed and traffic volume that will become the norm on this roadway demand a safe, multi-use pathway for non-motorized, vulnerable road users. A paved pathway will also benefit the Paradise Coast Trail.

Public input is very important and is encouraged. Comments may be sent via email to growth.management@colliercountyfl.gov. The public comment period will end Jan. 27.
