What alternatives will the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) consider?
The range of preliminary alternatives identified in the Scoping Document may include a combination of rehabilitation bridge options; replacement bridge options; or reasonable alternatives that may be identified by the public during the scoping process for the DEIS. The EIS will also evaluate a “No Action” alternative, which considers what future conditions in the Northeast Corridor might be if no project is undertaken to rehabilitate or replace the Portal Bridge.
