This development is intended to enhance traffic flow and provide additional travel options on one of the US’ key interstate motorways.

It involves widening and reconfiguring a 10.2-mile stretch of I-64 from Bland Boulevard to the I-664 interchange (exit 264).  

The current high-occupancy vehicles (HOV) lane in each direction will be transformed into an Express Lane, maintaining the three free general-purpose lanes. 

The project will convert one general-purpose lane into an Express Lane in each direction for the 1.3 miles between the I-664 interchange and Armistead Avenue, alongside the two remaining free general-purpose lanes.
