The project involves replacing an outdated drainpipe with a five-foot-wide one, adding a masonry wall, sidewalk, and bike path. The aim is to prevent flooding during storms or hurricanes, which causes traffic shutdowns. The meeting will take place at City Hall and FDOT staff and engineers will discuss how the project will prevent flooding. The project is expected to be completed by fall.
