The project purpose is to construct a portion of I-69 which will improve efficiency for the movement of goods, improve economic development in the Mississippi Delta and improve transportation linkages in areas of the United States that were overlooked in the original interstate system. The proposed project is approximately 17 miles in length, will consist of four lanes and will be constructed on new location. The project would initially construct two 12-foot-wide travel lanes with 8-foot-wide inside shoulders and 10-foot-wide outside shoulders. The remaining two lanes would be constructed as funding becomes available. This permit review will evaluate the impacts for the four-lane project as well as the proposed wetland and stream mitigation for all impacts.
