This was the fifth public meeting in a series of meetings the AHTD has held about 30 Crossing. The most recent meeting provided an update since a Planning and Environmental Linkages (PEL) study was completed and approved in July. Since then, the study team has further evaluated roadway, bridge and interchange concepts to widen I-30 to provide a downtown collector/distributor system, as well as evaluated an additional alternative to widen I-30 to 8 lanes.
