Is the addition of a third lane between Interchange 23 and 24 essential?
Traffic between Interchanges 23 and 24 continues to grow. Traffic analyses indicate that the northbound direction operates at unacceptable Level of Service (LOS) and the southbound direction will experience unacceptable LOS by 2008. If additional capacity is not provided, frequent breakdowns in traffic flows will continue to increase and longer delays will be experienced. The Draft Environmental Impact (DEIS) statement evaluated six alternatives, including doing nothing, and determined that the most cost effective method to reduce delay and provide acceptable LOS is by adding a third lane.
