Alternative 1 proposes constructing a new 12-ft wide shared use path with a 4.5-foot separation from the roadway, from the back of curb, and a 4-ft buffer area behind the path. The alignment for Build Alternative 1 is parallel to the west side of Livingston Road for the entire 11.5 miles of study corridor. Right of way needs for Alternative 1 vary along the corridor due to existing right-of-way widths and/or existing easement widths.
Alternative 2 proposes a 12-ft wide shared use path with minimum 4 ft buffers on both sides within the FPL utility easement along the 11.5 miles of the study corridor. The alignment for Build Alternative 2 follows the existing gravel maintenance road within the FPL utility easement. Right of way needs for this alternative vary along the corridor and will be refined in the design phase.
