Why not move the study area south of 199th Street?
Many public comments have suggested moving the study south of 199th Street since growth continues to move south. While a southern corridor with a higher-level facility may also be needed in the future, it does not alleviate the need for an east-west connection in the current study area. The study area provides an east-west connection 5 to 8 miles south of the 135th Street corridor and better accommodates a connection with the North Cass Parkway. Discussions are currently taking place regarding the need to study a southern corridor along K-68 in Miami County.
