Where Will the Interchanges be Located?
(click map to view a larger version)
 The
local access interchange locations with existing U.S. 219 for the
alternatives are being refined at this time. The interchange for
Alternative A or D with existing U.S. 219 would be located at Alternative
A or D’s crossing with existing U.S. 219, halfway between
Salisbury and the Pennsylvania/Maryland border.
The Alternative E interchange would be located just south of the
Pennsylvania/Maryland border and just east of existing U.S. 219
where the alternative turns to head south to I-68. This interchange
would be approximately two miles from the I-68 interchange and would
require an approximate 1,500 feet long, two-lane access road to
existing U.S. 219. The interchange for Alternative AE would be located
just south of the Pennsylvania/Maryland state line at Alternative
AE’s crossing with existing U.S. 219.
Two different interchanges are proposed for connection with I-68
at the southern project terminus. Alternative E would connect with
I-68 via a new interchange located slightly east of the existing
I-68/U.S. 219 interchange. This interchange would provide full directional
access between I-68 and the proposed highway. A modified version
of the existing I-68/U.S. 219 interchange would be ncorporated into
the interchange scheme to provide local access to existing U.S.
219. Alternatives A, D and AE would converge with I-68 just west
of the existing I-68/U.S. 219 interchange. The western interchange
location would also provide full directional access between I-68
and the proposed highway. The existing I-68/U.S. 219 interchange
would be incorporated into the proposed western interchange to provide
local access to existing U.S. 219.
