There are two new transportation studies along I-40 at Horizon Boulevard and Sawmill Road in the Village of Milan. The study at Horizon Boulevard is evaluating the existing interchange, while the study at Sawmill Road is evaluating the potential need for a new interchange.
These studies are both in the early stages to identify the Purpose and Need, or reason for the eventual projects, and will then move into developing alternatives, or options. At this time, the studies are not funded for the final design, and there is no funding or plans for construction.
