Project Goals

Project goals were established and approved by the Executive Oversight Committee in November 2013. In addition to providing direction to the project team, the goals were used to shortlist three design-build teams and to select the Kraemer/TSH design-build team which demonstrated “Best Value” with its proposal.

1. Maximize overall safety, capacity and operation of the interchange and the surrounding transportation network within the Project budget;
2. Complete Project construction to be fully operational before December 1, 2017;
3. Minimize impacts and inconvenience to the community, motorists, businesses, downtown and the public during construction; and
4. Achieve an aesthetically pleasing design compatible with current and future amenities and enhancements in and around the interchange.
