| Description | The proposed project includes the following:
The purpose of the project is to help reduce congestion by constructing additional travel lanes, improve safety by separating north and southbound travel lanes with a grassy median and upgrading other safety appurtenances (guard rail, sloped end treatments of culverts, widened shoulders, etc.), and improve mobility. The project spans approximately 28 miles and an approximately 250 acres will be required for right of way; some displacements are anticipated but have not yet been identified. |
