This presentation discusses the application of the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) Special Use Methodology in a project along Interstate 75, focusing on the Three Oaks Community Park. Key topics include noise studies, the proposed noise barrier's location, community involvement, and the decision-making process. The methodology's effectiveness in assessing noise barriers, park usage information, and the public's feedback are examined. The chosen design features for the barrier, including color, texture, and landscaping, reflect community preferences and concerns.

Public Involvement Steps with Lee County • Obtain Park Usage Information • Met with Park and County Officials • Solicited Input on Color, Texture and Landscaping
Public Involvement Results • The barrier was favored by Lee County • The color selected was Dark Beige • The texture selected was Ashlar Stone with smooth horizontal band and smooth posts • Landscaping was encouraged, to include Creeping Fig
Conclusions • A wide array of receiver points are required • Single-use facilities rarely qualify for abatement • Usage data can be difficult to obtain • The methodology is relatively simple to apply
Any Questions? • When’s the break? • When’s lunch?? • Are you done yet???
