SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FHWA, in cooperation with the Georgia

Impact Statement (EIS) on a proposal to construct a 4 lane limited
access highway on new location from the terminus of the existing Phase
I segment at Derenne Street to the Abercorn Street extension. The
project length is approximately 10.3 km. The proposed project is
necessary to provide additional capacity to mitigate congestion for
north-south traffic on the east side of Savannah.
Alternatives under consideration include: (1) The ``no-build'', and
(2) A controlled access highway on new location.
Letters describing the proposed action and soliciting comments will
be sent to appropriate Federal, State, and local agencies. A public
hearing will be held and a public notice will be given of the time and
place of the hearing.
To ensure that the full range of issues related to this proposed
project are addressed and all significant issues identified, comments
and suggestions are invited from all interested parties. Comments or
questions concerning this proposed action should be directed to the
FHWA at the address provided above.
