INDIANAPOLIS — INDOT has launched a new study, focusing on the future of urban interstates in Central Indiana.
ProPEL Indy is an opportunity for residents and businesses in the Indianapolis area to get a glimpse of the future of the major interstates in the Circle City, and will study strategies to enhance I-65 and I-70 inside the I-465 loop. According to INDOT, the study will examine in-depth the region’s overall mobility, equity, economic opportunity, and quality of life.
A two-year study, starting today, will include conversations, gathering feedback and ideas from across Central Indiana in order to gain a better understanding of the community's needs and expectations for improving the urban interstate system. This will also include collecting data on traffic and safety, land use, economic activity, environmental impacts, equity, workforce, as well as other factors.
“ProPEL Indy is all about the art of the possible as it relates to the future of Indy’s urban interstates,” said Mike Smith, Commissioner of the Indiana Department of Transportation. “We want to listen to as many people as we can over the life of the study, so we develop solutions for the future that make our community a better place to live, work, and play.”
In addition to an online survey, residents and businesses can take advantage of opportunities to meet with the ProPEL Indy team over the next two weeks.
