From I-24 (MP 44) to I-64 (MP 92) is 48 miles ADT 2009 ADT = 30,000 vehicles per day @ 2.2% growth rate 2030 ADT = 48,000 vpd 2009 Average Daily Truck.

INTERSTATE 57 ADD LANE FROM I-24 TO I-64

Add the 3rd lane to Interstate 57

From I-24 (MP 44) to I-64 (MP 92) is 48 miles

ADT 2009 ADT = 30,000 vehicles per day @ 2.2% growth rate 2030 ADT = 48,000 vpd 2009 Average Daily Truck Traffic = 30% or 10,000

Trucks per day

Estimated Cost to Widen to 6 lanes = $350 M (does not include rehabilitation of the exist. Pavement)

IDOT conducted a Feasibility Study in Franklin County to investigate adding the

3rd lane to I-57

Feasibility Study in Franklin County Conclusions

Yes, the I-57 traffic warrants an additional lane Widening should be accomplished by widening to the

inside: minimizes right of way cost and impacts includes closed drainage where median is less than

64’ requires widening of bridges does not impact overhead structures and interchanges

Costs (excludes structures & rehabilitation of the existing pavement) Inside Alternate (50’ existing median): $890/ft Inside Alternate (64’ existing median): $1,030/ft Inside Alternate (80’ existing median): $790/ft

Typical Sections : Inside Widening with 64’ median (closed drainage in median)

Typical Sections : Inside Widening with 80’ median (open drainage in median)

RUBBLIZATION EQUIPMENT

3. Add 3rd lane to I- 57 in fundable, usable segments/contracts….

3rd Lane Complete – Marion; South of MP 53 to north of MP 53- (not open to traffic)

Funded in MYP- MP 92, I-64 south of Mt. Vernon, to MP 96, I-64 north of Mt. Vernon; design under way to add third lane and replace the pavement. Construction planned for 2011.

Funded in MYP - MP 54 Marion, design underway to complete the 3rd lane through Marion

Add 3rd lane to I- 57 in fundable, usable segments/contracts

Unfunded ---- 1st priority: add third lane for 12.7 miles from north of IL 13 in Williamson County to south the Middle Fork Big Muddy River in Franklin County (north of Benton)

Total Cost = $65 M 12.7 miles of 3rd lane = $56 M I-57 over Pond Creek, SN 028-0001&0002,

replacement, $6.0 M I-57 over Lake Creek Branch, SN 100-0010 &

0011, widen structure and superstructure replacement, $3.0 M

Total Cost = $36.5 M 8 miles of 3rd lane (80’ median, open

drainage) = $33.5 M I-57 over Lake Creek Branch, SN 100-0010 &

0011, widen structure and superstructure replacement, $3.0 M

Job Supported by Highway Investments

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) estimates that a $1 billion of Federal highway expenditure supports 30,000 jobs which includes direct, supporting, and induced positions, defined as:

Construction oriented employment, includes all jobs created by the construction firms that work directly on the project or by the firms that provide direct inputs (paving materials, steel, concrete, etc.) to the construction project;

Supporting industries' employment, includes jobs in firms that provide inputs to the industries that directly provide materials and equipment used in highway construction. For example, a firm that produces guard rails is counted as 'construction oriented' employment but the firm that provides the sheet steel to make the guard rails is considered part of 'supporting industries' employment; and

Induced employment, includes all of the jobs supported by consumer expenditures resulting from wages to 'construction oriented' and 'supporting industries' employment.

Job Supported by Highway Investments

$1 billion of Federal-aid expenditure supported: 10,300 construction oriented jobs; 4,600 supporting industries' jobs; and 15,000 induced employment jobs

$350 M in highway expenditures, according to FHWA, should translate into: 3600 construction oriented jobs; 1600 supporting industries' jobs; and 5250 induced employment jobs
