STUDY COMPONENTS Scope of Study o Traffic projections o Analyze alternative improvements for I-75 Interchange and CR 99 o intersections Geometrics to address traffic demands, right-of-way impacts, o utility impacts, construction traffic maintenance, costs Engage stakeholders/public o Recommend a preferred alternative o Deliverables o Feasibility study with preferred alternative o Plan, profile, cross sections, cost estimate for preferred alternative o 10 | HAN- IR 75 & CR 99 Interchange Rehabilitation
PURPOSE o Amount of Crashes: Create more efficient and safer intersection travel through this corridor; o Limited Capacity: Reduce crashes due to speeding and distracted driving by allowing for less congestion at intersections; and o Future Development: Plan for new development leading to congestion through this corridor, especially on the exit ramps. 11 | HAN- IR 75 & CR 99 Interchange Rehabilitation
