About the Project
The project aims to address a high number of right-angle crashes and reduce traffic congestion on C.R. 600 E. during peak travel times. The project includes a proposed Reduced Conflict Intersection (RCI) at U.S. 40 and C.R. 600 E. Between 2022 and 2024, 12 of the 15 crashes reported at this intersection were right-angle crashes. Additionally, traffic volumes on the north and south approaches of C.R. 600 E have exceeded capacity, leading to long delays and safety concerns.
