80/94 FlexRoad Project Overview
80/94 FlexRoad is an Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) project to improve traffic flow and safety along Indiana’s busiest interstate corridor. Several improvements are planned for the I-80/I-94 Corridor (Borman Expressway), including innovative strategies to improve reliability of the system. The 14-mile corridor extends from the I-65 interchange in Lake County, Indiana to the IL 394 interchange in Cook County, Illinois.
Combining several Transportation Systems Management and Operations (TSMO) strategies will maximize the efficiency of the existing system. Interchange modifications are also expected to improve safety and mobility. Corridor-wide fiber optic improvements will support the digital signage that is part of the TSMO solutions for FlexRoad.
