I-69 Ohio River Crossing Project Team Preferred Route For New Bridge

Published On: September 4, 2018|Categories: Blog, Evansville, Local Businesses, Neighborhoods|

The I-69 Ohio River Crossing Project Team’s closer to deciding on a preferred route for the new bridge that will improve the i-69 corridor. The new corridor will be the I-69 Ohio River Crossing (I-69 ORX) connecting Evansville and Henderson. After the environmental impact statement announcing the preferred route, there will be a 45-day public comment period and formal hearings.

This fall, a preferred alternative will be identified & Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) published. Public hearings will follow on both sides of the river. The Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) & Record of Decision (ROD) are expected to follow in fall 2019. pic.twitter.com/p7v0N3G1Ur
