The topic is now closed, and anything you enter into this form will not be saved.

Help Evaluate Alternatives

All of the identified Build Alternatives (except the No-Build Alternative) would require some *impacts to properties along Milton Road if constructed. The widest alternative (Alternative 6a) could require the removal of more than 30 properties if constructed.

Questions 1-3 are targeted to understand how much property impacts (if any) you would be willing to accept in order to enhance the Milton Road corridor.

*Note: Property impacts are subject to change based on selecting and refining a Recommended Alternative. Funding has not yet been identified to construct any alternative (except the No-Build Alternative).
