The on-ramp of eastbound I-64 causes southbound SR 62 traffic to back upinto several adjacent intersections. Synchro predicts queues in excess of 1,400 feet duringthe morning peak period. The northbound right turn traffic also sees queues of about 500feet during the morning peak period.In the afternoon peak period, the intersection of SR 62 and the westbound I-64 off rampexperiences significant queuing. The westbound right-turning traffic from the off rampcauses queues of 780 feet or longer on the off ramp.Figure 2.03-3 shows a summary of the SR 62/64 AM existing conditions LOS. Figure 2.03-4shows a summary of the SR 62/64 PM existing conditions LOS.Prepared by Strand Associates, Inc. ® 2-12KRH:pll\S:\@SIECO\001--050\046\008\Wrd\Thoroughfare Plan\Draft 07-19-07\S2-Needs Identification 07-19-07.doc\072007
