This project will implement the preferred capacity improvements needed in the corridor. While adding capacity, it will aim to improve safety, mobility, and improve access to motorists, freight shippers, and transit operators to regional activity centers and destinations. Users will find that they will be able to more efficiently handle future traffic demand as a result of the preferred alternative.

Scope: |
Motorists, freight, and transit are the modes that will be served by this project. Currently this is a 4 lane facility. Project length is 16.7 miles at this time. Safety countermeasures and major work activities are not known at this time, but will be determined through the Preliminary Engineering phase of this project. It is anticipated that if additional through lanes are required, they would be added to the inside and that a median barrier would be added. The northbound I-435 to westbound K-10 ramp has a fairly tight horizontal curve that will be investigated for changes.
