LAND O’ LAKES, Fla. – The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) will hold a public hearing today, Tuesday, March 25, 2025, to discuss proposed improvements to the US 41 (SR 45) and SR 54 intersection in Pasco County. The hearing will address the Project Development and Environment (PD&E) study, Work Program Item (WPI) Segment (Seg) No.: 419182-1.
The project aims to address future roadway capacity issues and enhance safety conditions in the area. It encompasses approximately 1.5 miles of US 41 and a 0.3-mile section of Dale Mabry Highway/SR 597, with limits on SR 54 extending about 1.2 miles west and 1.2 miles east of the intersection.
The preferred alternative involves reconfiguring the intersection into a Single Point Urban Interchange (SPUI), with SR 54 through lanes elevated over US 41.
The public hearing will provide an opportunity for affected property and business owners, interested individuals, and organizations to provide feedback to FDOT. The hearing will be held both in person and virtually.
