Record of Decision: Washington County, UT
The FHWA is issuing this notice to advise the public that a Record of Decision (ROD) has been made following a Final Environmental Impact Statement prepared for the Southern Corridor project within Washington County, Utah. The ROD approves a location proposed for transportation improvements for the Southern Corridor project Washington County, Utah. The Southern Corridor Study Area includes an area in southern Washington County south and southeast of Interstate 15 (I-15) and State Route 9 (SR 9) including the cities of St. George, Washington, and Hurricane. The Selected Alternative (2800 West Alternative) includes a new interchange with I-15 at Reference Post 2 (Atkinville) and a new four-lane highway extending 26 miles to the intersection of 2800 West with SR 9. Selection of the Preferred Alternative was based on the best overall public interest to provide a safe and efficient transportation system and the social, economic, and environmental impacts. In addition, the project team considered public and resource agency input and city council recommendations or resolutions regarding the project. This project requires Federal approval of a proposed new Interstate access and Federal Highway Administration funding as authorized by Title 23 of the United States Code. Consequently, pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.), the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) in coordination with the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT), prepared an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the project's impact on the human environment. The Final EIS (FEIS) was issued on April 22, 2005. Pursuant to Section 6002 of the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users [23 U.S.C. 139(l)] any person or entity wishing to file a claim for judicial review challenging this decision must do so within 180 days of the publication of this notice.
Participation in the Transportation Technology Innovation and Demonstration Program
As authorized by section 5508 of the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU), the U.S. DOT/FHWA is interested in working with eligible State and local governments and one or more private sector partners to build upon the Intelligent Transportation Infrastructure Program (ITIP) that began under the provisions of section 5117(b)(3) of the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA-21). The SAFETEA-LU provides for the extension and further expansion of the ITIP program under the Transportation Technology Innovation and Demonstration Program (TTID), a new 2-part program that would advance the deployment of an operational intelligent transportation infrastructure system, through measurement of various transportation system parameters, to simultaneously aid in local transportation planning and analysis activities, while also supporting national monitoring of traffic congestion levels. The purpose of this program is threefold: Addressing national, local, and commercial data needs through enhancement of surveillance and data management capabilities in major metropolitan areas. This involves integration of data from existing surveillance infrastructure, and strategic deployment of supplemental surveillance infrastructure to support the provision of both real-time and archived roadway system performance data. At the national level, the goal is to develop an ability to measure the operating performance of the roadway system across the nation. Made available locally, such roadway system performance data can be used to assist in local system planning, evaluation, and management activities. The same data that is useful to the public transportation agencies also has value for commercial traveler information purposes. To achieve these objectives, the U.S. DOT/FHWA is seeking expressions of consent from eligible State and/or local transportation agencies/organizations interested in forming a public-private partnership, with a private partner that has either been pre-selected, or that will be selected, by the U.S. DOT/FHWA, to participate in the TTID program.
Record of Decision: Salt Lake County, UT
The FHWA is issuing this notice to advise the public that a Record of Decision (ROD) has been made following a Final Environmental Impact Statement prepared for the 11400 South Study Area within Salt Lake County, Utah. The ROD approves a location proposed for transportation improvements for the 11400 South Study Area in Salt Lake County, Utah. The 11400 South Study Area includes the area bounded by 12300/12600 South to 10400/10600 South, and Bangerter Highway to 700 East. It includes portions of the cities of Draper, Riverton, Sandy, and South Jordan, Utah. The Selected Alternative includes a new interchange with Interstate 15 at 11400 South, a new river crossing at 11400 South, and widening 10600 South to six lanes from just west of River Front Parkway to Jordan Gateway. Selection of the Preferred Alternative was based on a comparison of all the alternatives advanced for detailed study in terms of mobility improvements, and environmental, social, economic and Section 4(f) impacts. In addition, the project team considered public and resource agency input and city council recommendations or resolutions regarding the project. This project requires Federal approval of a proposed new Interstate access and may involve Federal Highway Administration funding as authorized by Title 23 of the United States Code. Consequently, pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.), the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) in coordination with the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT), prepared an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the project's impact on the human environment. The Final EIS (FEIS) was issued on June 3, 2005. Pursuant to Section 6002 of the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (23 U.S.C. 139(l)) any person or entity wishing to file a claim for judicial review challenging this decision must do so within 180 days of the publication of this notice.
