  • Our Aging Interstates
    Our Aging Interstates Pennsylvania’s more than 2,700 miles of interstate highways snake into every corner of the state, carrying 1.8 million commuters a day and making the Commonwealth one of the busiest corridors for all those consumer goods people are buying from their phones this Christmas. With the fourth-largest interstate system in the country, including the 63 miles in the Lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania has long been the envy of other states, but now its interstates are deteriorating faster than they can be repaired, Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) Highway Delivery Division Chief Melissa J. Batula said during a report to the Lehigh Valley Transportation Study (LVTS) and Freight Advisory Committee earlier this month. That includes Interstate 78 in the Lehigh Valley, where 62 percent of the roadway surface is rated to be in fair or poor condition, while just $8 million of the $259 million requested for “priority” projects has been programmed on the state’s 12-year plan for interstates. “We have a backlog of $251 million in the Lehigh Valley. We’re severely underfunded,” Batula said. “And that’s just what we need to keep the lights on. We’ve got to start talking about this amongst ourselves.” Those discussions won’t come easy. A report by the Interstate Steering Committee states that $13.8 billion in projects have been identified as priorities, while just $7.3 billion has been slated to be spent over the next 12 years, leaving about 188 “priority” projects unfunded. The ratio is even worse in the Lehigh Valley, where the more than 22,000 trucks daily – the second-highest statewide behind only I-81 – takes a greater toll on the roadway.

  • Transportation
    visionHagerstown 2035 5 | Transportation Transportation Introduction An adequate vehicular circulation system is vital for Hagerstown to remain a desirable place to live, work, and visit. Road projects that add highway capacity and new road links will be necessary to meet the Comprehensive Plan’s goals for growth management, economic development, and the downtown. This chapter addresses the City of Hagerstown’s existing transportation system and establishes priorities for improvements to roads, transit, and pedestrian and bicycle facilities over the next 20 years. Goals 1. The city’s transportation network, including roads, transit, and bicycle and pedestrian facilities, will meet the mobility needs of its residents, businesses, and visitors of all ages, abilities, and socioeconomic backgrounds. 2. Transportation projects will support the City’s growth management goals. 3. Long-distance traffic will use major highways to travel around Hagerstown rather than through the city. Issues Addressed by this Element 1. Hagerstown’s transportation network needs to be enhanced to maintain safe and efficient flow of people and goods in and around the city. 2. Hagerstown’s network of major roads is generally complete, with many missing or partially complete segments in the Medium-Range Growth Area. 3. Without upgrades, the existing road network will not be sufficient to accommodate future traffic in and around Hagerstown. 4. Hagerstown’s transportation network needs more alternatives to the automobile, including transit and bicycle facilities and pedestrian opportunities. Existing Transportation Network Known as “Hub City,” Hagerstown has long served as a transportation center, first as a waypoint on the National Road—America’s first Dual Highway (US Route 40) federally funded highway—and later as a railway node.

  • I-83 EXIT 4 IMPROVEMENTS the Proposed Improvements Are at the Exit 4 Interchange of Interstate 83 (I-83) and Route 851 in Shrewsbury Township
    HOW DDI WORKS I-83 EXIT 4 IMPROVEMENTS The proposed improvements are at the Exit 4 Interchange of Interstate 83 (I-83) and Route 851 in Shrewsbury Township. The area surrounding the interchange has seen extensive growth that the existing interchange can no longer accommodate. There are high levels of congestion, traffic backs up onto I-83 and the bridge carrying I-83 traffic over Route 851 is structurally deficient. The purpose of the project is to ease congestion, increase capacity, and improve safety for motorists and pedestrians, by constructing a diverging diamond interchange (DDI). A diverging diamond interchange (DDI) is unique from a standard diamond interchange in that the side road traffic Route 851 PROJECT OBJECTIVES crosses to the left side of the road at a signalized intersection prior to the bridge. This allows direct left turns from the off-ramps to Route 851 and allows for a direct left turn on to the on-ramps to I-83. The side road (Route 851) traffic crosses back to the Eliminate traffic back-ups on the right side of the road at a signal beyond the bridge. ramps from I-83 to improve safety The DDI configuration has an operational advantage over the standard diamond in that it has only 2 phases per signal cycle versus 3 phases. This allows the DDI to provide more green time to traffic, alleviating congestion. Additionally, because of Increase capacity and reduce the direct left turns, there are fewer conflict points than a standard diamond, which reduces the crash rate and crash severity. congestion though the project area As of April 2018, 96 diverging diamond interchanges (DDIs) have been opened to traffic in the United States.

  • Gatlinburg-Pigeon Forge-Sevierville, Tn Travel Directions To/From Free Parking at Bms Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge/Sevierville, Tennessee
    GATLINBURG-PIGEON FORGE-SEVIERVILLE, TN TRAVEL DIRECTIONS TO/FROM FREE PARKING AT BMS GATLINBURG/PIGEON FORGE/SEVIERVILLE, TENNESSEE TO BMS There are two options for traveling from the Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge/Sevierville area to BMS – via Blountville (to approach from the west on Highway 394) or via Johnson City (to approach from the south on Highway 11E). Highway 394 carries the heaviest load of race traffic of all the designated race routes. Via Blountville From Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge/Sevierville, go east on Interstate 40 and take Exit 421 (a left-side exit) to northbound Interstate 81. There is a work zone on northbound Interstate 81 at Mile Marker 60 where a truck climbing lane is being constructed, but two lanes of traffic remain open through that work zone. You can get off at either Tennessee Exit 66 (Tennessee Highway 126) or Tennessee Exit 69 (Tennessee Highway 394). Using the Exit 66 route, turn right at the bottom of the ramp along eastbound Highway 126 towards Blountville. Go through the intersection with State Route 75. Take the second right past State Route 75 (Franklin Drive) in the Blountville community. Go two blocks and turn right at the traffic signal onto eastbound Highway 394. Using Franklin Drive allows you to avoid the heavily-used intersection of Highway 126 and Highway 394. Continue east on Highway 394. Go under the US 11E bridges. Get in the right lane. Go through the traffic signal at Tennessee Highway 390, staying in the right lane. To go to Speedway Parking, take a right turn at the next intersection (White Top Road); Speedway Parking is the first driveway on the left.
