From the City of Fort Myers: April 23, 2021 The City of Fort Myers is hosting a Pre-Construction Public Meeting on Monday, April 26, 2021 for the First Street and Second Street Two-Way Traffic Conversion Phase I. The virtual public meeting will be on Zoom starting at 5 p.m. Please register in advance for the meeting at: https://cityftmyers.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_w47AJQ6MRqyZX6u-ElBCSA. You may also register for the meeting on the project website at www.CFM2way.com. The city will provide a review of the project, including a video of new traffic movements planned and what to expect during construction. A Question and Answer (Q & A) session will follow the presentation. The conversion of the First and Second streets corridors from one-way to two-way streets will improve neighborhood safety, lower speed limits, simplify access points, improve safety for all users (motorists, bicyclists, pedestrians, and transit) and add to downtown evacuation routes in case of hurricanes or other emergencies.
