It is too early in the project to know whether or not additional right-of-way will be needed. The Commission’s project team is evaluating existing conditions and developing engineering alternatives. For each alternative, there will be preliminary assessments to determine if additional highway right-of-way, including property acquisitions, will be needed to implement each particular alternative. The project team will use the information on the extent and cost of right-of-way acquisition as part of the screening process to select the Preferred Alternative for the project. Once the Preferred Alternative is selected and approved, its alignment will be defined in Final Design and the amount of right-of-way will be determined. However, the Commission is committed to minimizing the project's impacts on the environment and local communities, including right-of-way acquisition.
