Segment 3
Need and purpose
The project is needed because US 190/SH 36 from SH 95 to BU 190:
- is inadequate to meet Interstate access control requirements for high-speed access to the mainlanes;
- has safety and operation issues due to at-grade driveway and cross street connections to the mainlanes;
- is part of the broader expansion of I-14 and does not meet current criteria and standards for an interstate facility.
The purpose of the proposed project is to enhance operation and safety by adding frontage roads and by adding grade separated interchanges to accommodate the future I-14 extension.
