This document is a Railroad Certification memo from Collier County's Transportation Management Services Department, specifically from the Transportation Engineering Division, addressed to the FDOT LAP Design Project Manager. The project involves roadway improvements for the 16th Street NE Bridge (FM #: 451283-1-58-01), which includes constructing a new bridge and widening the existing roadway to the west. The improvements will provide 11-foot travel lanes with 6-foot shoulders (4-foot paved plus 2-foot unpaved) along the project length, and include a 6-foot sidewalk on the west side of the roadway. The proposed bridge will be 50 feet, 5.0 inches wide and 147 feet, 0.5 inches long, with two 12-foot travel lanes, a 6-foot shoulder, and a 6-foot sidewalk on the west side, and a 12-foot shoulder on the east side.

The memo specifically certifies that the project has no railroad involvement within its project limits, effectively marking the project as "railroad CLEAR". Minor additional improvements will include drainage modifications to existing roadside swales and installation of new concrete driveways up to the existing right-of-way. The document is dated April 9, 2024, and is signed by Dennis F. McCoy, Project Manager III, who is confirming the lack of railroad engagement for this infrastructure project.
