4. I am opposed to widening the interstate in this area. Enlarging a funnel but keeping the receptacle the same size does not eliminate overflow. Widening the interstate but funneling traffic onto the same size bridge only enlarges the congestion over a residential/historic/small business neighborhood vs. along an occupied interstate corridor between College and Airline. DO NOT WIDEN THE INTERSTATE UNTIL INTERCHANGE BENEFITS ARE MEASURED.

Thank you for your comment. Interchange improvements were studied in the Feasibility stage and further studied as part of the Interchange Modification Reports.
