I‐95/I‐895 Split – Major Traffic Pattern Change

Previously, I‐95 SB exited on                      the right

In July 2009, I‐895 SB started   to exit right

I‐95 became the “through movement”

Significant change in the traffic pattern

IN DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION

■ Plans reviewed for compliance with all environmental permits

■ Looks for ways to avoid/minimize impacts to regulated resources

■ Monitors sites daily

■ Precipitation events ‐ inspects site pre/post storm to ensure properly installed controls and tracks storm‐related damage

COMPLIANCE 

■ Forecasts problems

■ Works with staff on modifications, site changes, emergencies, etc.

■ Contractor has known about an issue but does not repair the control

■ Contractor is performing an action that results in the non‐compliance

■ Issue is tracked through resolution and until it is in compliance with the permits
