While we know that elevated portions of the express lanes will be required, we are currently developing preliminary plans that will be finalized by the successful bidder/Developer. The project’s goal is to first avoid, and second minimize/mitigate, any right-of-way impacts, including evaluation of potential solutions such as elevated lanes. One of the benefits of elevated lanes includes a minimized project footprint, however, this needs to be balanced with costs and visual impacts as well as engineering constraints. Final design plans, including final elevations, are anticipated to be completed in 2024 and will meet the required design height standards.
