Alternatives Being Studied
The 80/94 FlexRoad Planning and Environment Linkages (PEL) study identified four alternatives to be analyzed in greater detail during the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) study currently underway.
The alternatives all include Transportation Systems Management and Operations (TSMO) strategies, including dynamic shoulder lanes, variable speed limits, ramp metering, lane control and queue warning systems. Each alternative includes a combination of possible improvement strategies with increasing amounts of complementary benefits.

About the NEPA Study
The NEPA (National Environmental Policy Act) phase of the project includes detailed analysis of each alternative. The NEPA Study is expected to be finalized in late 2024. It will identify a preferred alternative, and a formal comment period will be held.
