Project Details
The SR 76 PD&E study is being conducted by the FDOT in conjunction with Martin County and the FHWA (Federal Highway Administration). The study will document information necessary for the FDOT and FHWA to reach a decision on the type, design and location of improvements to SR 76.
Based on long-range planning, projected population and employment growth, and projected traffic volumes, the Martin Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) has made this project a priority in Martin County. The proposed project is included in the Martin County MPO's Year 2030 Cost Affordable Long-Range Transportation Plan (LRTP), and has been designated as a primary Multimodal corridor. MPO travel demand estimates indicate that in 2030, daily traffic volumes will increase by 60% on SR 76 due to the anticipation of high employment growth along the project corridor in the area east of I-95 and north of SR 76.
During preliminary planning for this project through the FDOT’s Efficient Transportation Decision Making (ETDM) screening process, concerns were raised by agencies regarding various potential impacts to the environment. Specific agreements with the FDOT have been made to include the following work in the project scope. See the ETDM web page for more information.
