As a resident of Jefferson place, I would like to voice my family’s deep concern for the proposed flyover. We live on the hill half way up McConnell and the elevation makes us surprisingly prone to road noise from the interstate. Depending on atmospheric conditions it can be quite noisy as is. Adding any elevation to the existing source of road noise could significantly affect the quality of life in our neighborhood, especially for us. I hope a thorough study is done to make an effort to ensure that adequate engineering is done to create a sufficient sound barrier not only prevents additional noise, but possibly even reduces existing noise. Even better, fix the existing noise and scuttle the plans for a flyover. Thank you for your consideration
Response:
The project team is evaluating the effect of the flyover ramp on the noise levels for the residences in the Jefferson Place and Bocage neighborhoods.
