A public hearing is scheduled to talk about ways to improve traffic on Immokalee and Vanderbilt Beach roads.

Last month, Collier County Commissioner Burt Saunders proposed implementing a one-year moratorium to stop negatively impacting Immokalee Road from Interstate 75 eastward to Oil Well Road and on Vanderbilt Beach Road from I-75 eastward toward its current end location.

The county commission is having a hearing at 5 p.m. on Tuesday, where they’ll plan to find ways to improve traffic conditions on these two roads.

Neighbors have already gone on Nextdoor to encourage everyone to attend and make their voices heard.

The public hearing is taking place at the Collier County Government Center.

The hearing is an open forum, which encourages people to come out and voice their concerns regarding the traffic issue.
