Phase III Study

A study for Phase III of the I-64/I-264 interchange improvements will analyze the remaining movements within the interchange to correct the operational deficiencies and improve safety, capacity and traffic operations. The project entails improving the remaining I-64/I-264 movements to include eastbound I-64 movements to I-264 and I-264 movements to I-64.

The I-64/I-264 interchange is configured in a typical cloverleaf geometry with additional directional ramps and the I-264 collector distributor (CD) system running through the interchange. The CD system connects I-264 with the Military Highway interchange to the west and the Newtown Road interchange to the east. The I-64/I-264 interchange has numerous geometric deficiencies as well as many forecasted operational deficiencies. Current improvements underway associated with Phase I and Phase II only mitigate deficiencies associated with movements oriented from westbound I-64 to eastbound I-264 and along eastbound I-264.
