I support noise barriers and feel they are important for neighborhoods bordering the Interstate project. I would hope that consideration would also be given to not raising any billboards along the project. Raising billboard to provide visibility over the sound barriers make them far to visible to adjoining neighborhood. This is particularly disturbing when they are illuminated at night
Response:
Thank you for your comments. Some of the noise barriers proposed qualify for federal funding, other do not. A special state appropriation will be necessary to construct noise barriers not eligible for federal funding. DOTD does not construct billboards.
