DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Highway Administration

Environmental Impact Statement:

Mercer and Middlesex Counties, New

Jersey

AGENCY: Federal Highway

Administration (FHWA), USDOT.

ACTION: Notice of intent.

SUMMARY: The FHWA is issuing this

notice to advise the public that an

Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)

will be prepared for changes being

considered to Route 1 and intersecting

roadways in the greater Penn’s Neck

Area to improve transportation service.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Robin Schroeder, Program Operations

Director or Amy Fox, Environmental

Coordinator, Federal Highway

Administration, 840 Bear Tavern Road,

Suite 310, West Trenton, NJ 08628.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant

to Title 23, Code of Federal Regulations,

Part 771, Environmental Impact and

Related Procedures, the FHWA, in

cooperation with the New Jersey

Department of Transportation (NJDOT),

will prepare an environmental impact

statement in accordance with the

National Environmental Policy Act

(NEPA), on alternatives for

modifications to Route 1 and

intersecting roadways in the Penn’s

Neck Area, to improve transportation

service. Generally, the section of Route

1 under evaluation extends from

Alexander Road Interchange in West

Windsor Township in Mercer County to

Scudders Mill Road Interchange in

Middlesex County. The EIS will

evaluate the No-Action and Build

Alternatives to determine potential

impacts and costs associated with each.

An Environmental Assessment (EA)/

Section 4(F) Evaluation of some

alternative solutions for mobility and

congestion problems in the Penn’s Neck

area of Route 1 was developed by

FHWA and NJDOT and made available

to the public and review agencies

during October 2000. Subsequently, a

decision was made by Governor

Christine Todd Whitman to prepare an

EIS to allow broader public

participation in the process and a fuller

evaluation of alternatives and impacts.

After publication of this Notice, the

FHWA in cooperation with NJDOT will

continue the scoping process begun

during the preparation of the EA to

evaluate alternatives already under

review and to identify additional

possible alternatives. This process will

also identify significant issues to be

addressed in the EIS.

To ensure that issues involving this

proposed action are addressed fully and

significant concerns are identified,

written comments, suggestions or

questions should be directed to the

FHWA at the address provided above or

directed to: Mr. Andras Fekete,

Manager, Bureau of Environmental

Services, New Jersey Department of

Transportation, 1035 Parkway Avenue,

Trenton, NJ 08625–0600, Telephone:

609–530–2824.

The public will receive notices on

location and time of future

opportunities for participation at

meetings and public hearings through

newspaper advertisements and other

means. If you wish to be placed on the

mailing list to receive further

information as the project develops,

contact Mr. Andras Fekete at the
