Project
Location
The Bow-Concord section of Interstate 93
(from the I-89 interchange to the I-393 interchange) serves
as a critical link for statewide travel to the White Mountains
and the Lakes Region, a regional commuting route for Concord
and state workers, as well as an important local route for
Bow, Concord and the surrounding area. The continued pressures
of high traffic volumes and safety concerns have lead to
this study of the I-93 Corridor through Bow and Concord.
I-93
Transportation Planning Study
 |
The
New Hampshire Department of Transportation (NHDOT)
has begun a study of the Bow-Concord I-93 Corridor.
The
Planning Study will be supported by a consultant
team led by McFarland-Johnson, Inc. of Concord, NH.
The study includes developing a multi-modal transportation
model, performing a macro-level evaluation of environmental
impacts and benefits, and conducting an extensive
public participation program to help identify problems
and develop alternatives.
The
purpose of the public participation program is to
create an interactive environment to keep all interested
parties informed and ensure a voice in the process.
The program includes these newsletters, a project
web site, presentations at public meetings, displays
at public venues, and the input from technical and
citizen advisory committees.
The
Planning Study is currently underway and is scheduled
to be completed in early 2005. The City of Concord
has recently begun their master plan update, as well
as studying their Opportunity Corridor. The towns
of Bow and Pembroke are also updating their master
plans. All of these studies are scheduled to be complete
by the beginning of 2005.
The
Bow Concord I-93 Transportation Planning Study is
actively participating in all of the other planning
studies in the region, but, we also need help from
the public. Public input is necessary to ensure a
comprehensive evaluation of the corridor. If you
would like to contribute, contact points and the
project web site address are listed on the opposite
page. |
