ARDOT Proposed Connector for I-22 and Highway 61
Rivercrest School District has formally expressed strong opposition to Option 3A, the proposed highway route that would run directly in front of our school campus.
Student safety is our priority.
We encourage parents and community members to share specific concerns in the official comment link below. If you choose to comment, consider addressing:
• Increased heavy truck traffic during student drop-off and dismissal
• Higher risk of accidents involving minors
• Bus safety concerns
• Speed limits and enforcement in a school zone
• Long-term air quality and noise exposure
• Impact on extracurricular events and evening traffic
• The availability of alternate routes that do not directly impact a school campus
A community meeting will be held February 26th at Rivercrest School District. We strongly encourage attendance so your voice can be heard in person.
In addition to the community meeting, please submit your comments here:
https://survey123.arcgis.com/share/179b8c11b6d34b2ea4e34bea32adb209
We remain opposed to Option 3A and will continue advocating for the safest outcome for our students.
