Public input meeting to discuss future improvements to I-94 Midway and Grant Marsh Bridge scheduled June 5
BISMARCK, N.D. – A public input meeting will be held from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. on June 5 at the Huckleberry House – 1700 River Road in Bismarck. The meeting will utilize an open house format with a presentation starting at 6 p.m.
A pre-recorded presentation and other materials will be available following the meeting by visiting the North Dakota Department of Transportation (NDDOT) website at www.dot.nd.gov and clicking Public Meetings under Quick Links.
The NDDOT is completing an engineering and feasibility study for I-94 Midway and the Grant Marsh Bridge.
The bridge is reaching the end of its useful life and will need replacement in the future. This provides an opportunity to consider operational improvements for the I-94 and I-194 roadways and ramps. These interstate improvements would work jointly with replacement alternatives for the Grant Marsh Bridge.
This study will provide project-level analyses and early decisions that follow Federal Highway Administration guidance under the Planning and Environment Linkages (PEL) initiative.
PEL is an integrated planning process that bridges the gap between long range/comprehensive planning and project level planning. The NDDOT intends to adopt or incorporate planning products from this study into the federal environmental review process, pursuant to Title 23 U.S.C. § 168(d)(4).
The public input meeting will provide project background information and collect feedback on existing conditions, concerns, and opportunities within the project area.
If unable to attend the public input meeting, written statements or comments must be mailed by June 20, 2023, to Theresa Maahs, Stantec, 100 Collins Ave., Suite 101, Mandan, ND 58554 or emailed to Theresa.Maahs@stantec.com with “Public input meeting” in the e-mail subject heading.
