Requests were made to reduce right-of-way impacts wherever possible…

GDOT must make right-of-way decisions based on what is required for the project’s engineering and design while conforming with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) environmental decision-making process and not based on parcel type. When feasible and practical, GDOT first tries to avoid right-of-way impacts. If they cannot be avoided, GDOT works to minimize right-of-way impacts. Right-of-way impacts shown at the 2019 Public Information Open Houses were identified but the project team continues to identify needs based on the evolving engineering and design refinements.

Concerns were expressed about widening SR 400 and converting land to roads.
We received comments requesting information regarding the schedule for right-of-way acquisitions that will be made as part of the SR 400 Express Lanes project.
