1 I-90 / I-495 Interchange Improvements Project Hopkinton-Westborough- Southborough December, 2014

2 Introduction / Welcome Paul Matthews, Executive Director, 495 MetroWest Partnership Renata Welch, MassDOT Project Manager Jonathan Gulliver, MassDOT District Highway Director

3 Background Historic congestion at interchange associated with toll plaza MassDOT planning study ( ) identified deficiencies and need for improvements Implementation of All Electronic Toll System (AETS) July 15, 2016 Subsequent elimination of toll plaza will not eliminate congestion and safety issues

4 Project Area

5 Immediate Study Area

6 2035 Design Volumes Based upon 2035 Priority Development Areas scenario Weekday AM and PM peak hours

7 Previous Concept from Planning Study

8 Background Safety and Operational Issues Substandard geometry Magnitude of passenger vehicle traffic Magnitude of truck traffic Vehicle conflicts (weaving sections) within interchange area

9 Advocacy

10 Advocacy

11 Advocacy

12 Advocacy

13 Project Goals What Are We Trying to Do Eliminate Weaving Movement Conflicts Improve Interstate-to-Interstate Design Reduce Congestion and Travel Time Minimize Resource Impacts

14 Existing Conditions

15 Environmental Concerns

16 Environmental Concerns

17 Environmental Concerns

18 Environmental Concerns

19 Environmental Concerns

20 Concept Development MassDOT internal working group started with a blank slate to envision new interchange configurations New interchange configurations were then modified while still maintaining appropriate design speeds and geometry All design standards are met New ramp designs to provide direct connections and eliminate weaves

21 DIRECTIONAL (60MPH) Concept Development

22 FULL CLOVERLEAF Concept Development

23 Screening Categories and Considerations Design/Operations Eliminate weaves Direct connections Ramp geometry Reduce congestion Stormwater BMPs Cost/Construction Construction cost Mitigation cost Bridge maintenance Phasing Maintaining traffic Environmental Wetlands Flood zone Habitat ACEC Open space Riverfront area Historic / Archaeological Hazardous materials Air quality Water quality Socioeconomic Noise / distance from residences Neighborhood impacts Visual impacts Environmental justice ROW impacts Regulatory Meets Purpose & Need Permit requirements Mitigation needs

24 Concept Development Initial Screening Eight Initial Concepts 30+ Variations of Initial Concepts Concept 22-3 Concept 14-5 Concept 14-4

25 Existing Ramp to Remain (with Modifications) Concept 22-3

26 Concept 22-3

27 Concept 14-5 Existing Ramps to Remain (with Modifications) Existing Ramp to Remain (with Modifications)

28 Concept 14-5

29 Concept 14-4 Existing Ramps to Remain (with Modifications) Existing Ramps to Remain (with Modifications) Existing Ramp to Remain (with Modifications)

30 Concept 14-4

31 Preliminary Traffic Modeling Based upon 2035 Priority Development Areas scenario Baseline (No Build) represents conditions with toll plazas removed Weekday AM and PM peak hours analyzed All three concepts provide acceptable operations and address weaving and congestion concerns

32 Future PM Peak Hour Conditions (2035) No Build Insert video clip 2035 No Build PM

33 Future PM Peak Hour Conditions (2035) Concept 14-4

34 2035 Operational Benefits

35 Resource Impacts

36 Conceptual Cost Estimates Concept 22-3 $285,400,000* Concept 14-5 $215,800,000* Concept 14-4 $162,000,000* note: does not include engineering, mitigation or ROW costs * 2014 Dollars

37 Programming Project has historically been included in Central Mass MPO / CMRPC Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) but not fully funded Project has been included by reference in Boston MPO LRTP Need to continue efforts to include in both plans and eventual Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) Funding expected to include Western Turnpike funds

38 Outreach November 18 th initial discussion with FHWA environmental and programming staff December 2 nd initial discussion with State and Federal environmental agencies December 18 th initial discussion with 495 MetroWest Partnership, local and regional officials and stakeholders

39 Overall Project Schedule 1 Planning Study 2 Feasibility Study/ Conceptual Design 3 EA / EIR / 25% Design 4 Final Design and Permitting 5 Early Action Construction 6 Construction Complete Current Stage

40 Next Steps Continue to refine concepts and impact calculations Prepare ENF for Winter 2015 filing Work with MPOs (Boston, Central Mass) to include project in Long Range Plans Procure consultant services for environmental documentation / 25% / permitting Prepare Environmental Assessment / Environmental Impact Report for NEPA and MEPA and obtain permits Design and Construction
