Project Need and Purpose

Existing US 59 within the project area does not meet criteria for an Interstate. The criteria includes:

  • Controlled access – access to main lanes allowed via ramps
  • Minimum design speeds: 60 mph (main lanes) and 45 mph (frontage

roads)

  • 30-foot horizontal clear zone requirements.
