I travel SR 37 to and from I-69 every workday. Once complete, how will this impact my commute?

Once the SR 37 project is complete, there will no longer be signalized intersections on the corridor. Traffic is expected to flow more fluidly from north of 146th Street to I-69. In addition, the elimination of traffic signals on SR 37 is expected to ease traffic congestion along the northbound I-69 and SR 37 exit (Exit 205) during P.M. peak hours. After improvements are made, all intersections will operate at the highest level of service (A) through 2036. In addition, the study found increased safety due to the reduction of stop and go congestion. This means that your commute time will decrease and motorist safety will increase.


The 2010 SR 37 Mobility Study (PDF) conducted an intersection capacity analysis based on 2010 traffic counts and 2036 projected traffic counts. See table for more information.
