Hearing open to input on I-70 widening project
The environmental impact of widening Interstate 70 will be the subject of a public hearing from 4 to 7 tonight at Knights of Columbus Hall, 2525 N. Stadium Blvd.
The hearing is sponsored by the Missouri Department of Transportation, which will display maps and information but make no formal presentation.
Anyone can offer input or ask questions at the hearing. Transportation department staff and the Missouri Highways and Transportation Commission will evaluate comments to make final decisions on the location and design of I-70 improvements. A court reporter will be available to accept comments for the official record. Written comments will be accepted until March 28.
