At U.S. Route 460 ramps
This study will address safety, congestion mitigation, and transportation demand management (TDM) needs along Route 67, specifically at the Route 460 Exit 2 ramps. Study elements will include, but will not be limited to interchange reconfiguration, intersection geometric improvements, and other traffic improvements. The study will also address safety concerns along Front Street and 2nd Street, including vehicle speeds and pedestrian accommodations. The project recommendations that come from this study will be developed into funding applications for SMART SCALE Round 7.
The Phase 1 survey regarding current transportation needs on Route 67, specifically at the Route 460 Exit 2 ramps, and along Front Street and 2nd Street was completed in June 2025. The study team will use the input obtained from the public to better focus on solutions and develop alternatives to address the identified needs.
