How will the ICC affect mobility?
• As compared with not building the highway, the ICC will: • Enable the safe and efficient travel of an additional 85,000 vehicles; • Reduce travel times dramatically: Every weekday morning, the ICC will save travelers a collective 3,000 hours; • Provide more than a 10 percent reduction in average weekday traffic on more than 40 miles of main east-west roads in the ICC corridor (though north-south roads will experience an increase due to travelers seeking access to the ICC); and • Reduce hours of congestion by 25 percent at 29 extremely congested intersections.
