and provide safe and efficient
movement of people, goods and
services, while giving full consideration
to local roads as primary transportation
corridors. This project is needed
because congestion and safety concerns
are rising within the project corridor
and travel times for local and through
traffic have increased. These conditions
have arisen from increased and
projected regional travel demand due to
planned community growth, limited
local city street connectivity to and
across I–90, and mobility limitations at
existing interchanges.
Ten alternatives under consideration
include (a) taking no action, (b)
applying enhanced Transportation
Systems and Transportation Demand
Management methods on existing
transportation systems, (c) Transit, and
(d) seven combinations of actions that
combine some or all of the following:
Interchange modifications at the
Spokane Street Interchange, interchange
modifications at the SH 41 Interchange,
expansion of SH 41 to six lanes;
interchange modifications at the Seltice
Way Interchange, a new interchange or
an I–90 grade separation at Greensferry
Road, an I–90 grade separation at
Syringa Street, applying access
management on Seltice Way, and
auxiliary lanes and/or collector
distributor roads on I–90 from the
Spokane Street Interchange to the SH 41
Interchange.
Letters describing the proposed action
and soliciting comments will be sent to
appropriate Federal, State, and local
agencies, and to provide organizations
and citizens who have previously
expressed or are known to have interest
in this proposal. A series of public
meetings will be held in Post Falls. A
scoping meeting will be noticed and
held in Post Falls. In addition, a public
hearing will be held. Public notice will
be given of the time and place of the
meetings and hearing. The draft EIS will
be available for public and agency
review and comment prior to the public
hearing.
To ensure that the full range of issues
related to this proposed action are
addressed and all significant issues
identified, comments, and suggestions
are invited from all interested parties.
Comments or questions concerning this
proposed action and the EIS should be
directed to the FHWA or ITD at the
address provided above.
