CURRENT CONDITIONS

• Roadway design meet standards • Existing travel demand (2012) – All mainline segments, merge/diverge

segments, and unsignalized intersections meet LOS standards

– Exit 56, SR 85 signalized intersection does not meet LOS standards

• Safety review • Community and Environment review

FUTURE TRAVEL DEMAND - 2025

• Mainline and merge/diverge segments meet LOS standards

• Four unsignalized intersections do not meet LOS standards – Exit 70, SR 285– Exit 85, US 331 (DeFuniak Springs)– Exit 136, SR 276 (Family Dollar Distribution

Center)– Exit 142, SR 71 (Marianna)

• Exit 56, SR 85 (Crestview) signalized intersection does not meet LOS standards

FUTURE TRAVEL DEMAND - 2040

• Mainline and merge/diverge segments meet LOS standards

• Nine unsignalized intersections do not meet LOS standards – Exit 45, CR 189 – Exit 70, SR 285– Exit 85, US 331

(DeFuniak Springs)– Exit 96, SR 81 – Exit 112, SR 79

(Bonifay)

• Exit 56, SR 85 (Crestview) signalized intersection does not meet LOS standards

– Exit 120, SR 77 (Chipley)– Exit 130, US 231– Exit 136, SR 276 (Family
