PEL study background
This PEL study area includes critical access corridors into the region’s core.
• US-169 in Clay County, along with the Broadway Extension Bridge
over the Missouri River.
• “Downtown north loop” along the I-70 corridor is substandard
for current interstate facilities.
Why a PEL study?
•
Transportation infrastructure provides safe and reliable access to the region’s core, across rivers, county and
state boundaries.
•
Benefits of past investments are numerous and significant.
•
Transport of goods and services contributes to commercial activity and supports the regional economy.
•
Lifespan of these facilities is limited, and conditions around them change over time.
•
Due to the large investment needed to rehabilitate/replace infrastructure,
we must take a long-term look at future needs.
Study purpose
Other improvements to
be considered:
Overall objective:
•
• Develop a purpose and need statement, reasonable alternatives
and a phased implementation plan for multi-modal
transportation investments for subsequent analysis under NEPA.

•

•

railroads.
•
KDOT plans for
Lewis and Clark
Viaduct.
• General scope of proposed improvement is replacement or reuse
of the US- 169 bridge along with I-70 corridor improvements
• These improvements could include:
• Strategies to improve traffic flow at north and south ends
of Broadway Extension Bridge.
• Strategies to better connect street grid between River
Market and downtown Kansas City for future
redevelopment.
• According to NEPA regulations, PEL study will focus on issues
such as general location, mode choice, transportation
performance factors, known environmental and
cultural resource constraints, area-wide air quality
and land use implications.
Study purpose
What will we be looking for?
What will we not accomplish as part of this study?
Study will not produce a single preferred/recommended
alternative.
Study will produce a set of reasonable improvement
alternatives which could be implemented over time
according to a phasing strategy.
It will set foundation for future NEPA work
for segments of study area.
