During the month of February we conducted Neighborhood Outreach Meetings.  A summary is available here.  These meetings were focused on the neighborhoods adjacent to the US 20, Knox Butte and Millersburg Area Interchanges.

Introduction to the Project 
I-5 Mainline Draft Design Concept - This drawing shows an additional travel lane in each diretion on the I-5 mainline.
 
Knox Butte and U.S. 20 Interchanges
These drawings show two concepts for the I-5 mainline between the Knox Butte Interchange and US 20.  These two interchanges work together as a system and an additional lane is needed for traffic entering/exiting the freeway between the two interchanges.  There are two concepts under development, an Auxiliary Road system and a Collector/Distributor Road System.  The main difference between the two is that the Collector/Distributor road is separated from I-5 mainline traffic by barrier.
