The project proposes to improve US Highway 54 between 279th Street West and Seville Avenue in Sedgwick County, Kansas to provide a freeway facility with full control of access, interchanges, separations, and frontage roads as required. Summary of environmental impacts: additional land will be required for right-of-way; residences and businesses will be displaced; earthwork borrow requirements will be large; existing commercial businesses at Goddard may be adversely affected as a result of increased access control and/or a decrease in visual exposure; increased roadway noise levels and light intensities may adversely affect some existing residentail and commercial developments; safer, more efficient travel will be rpovided for the public; the proposed improvement should enhance the attractiveness of Goddard for future residential, commercial and industrial growth; the proposed improvement is part of the only planned freeway facility linking Southwest Kansas with Wichita and the other major metropolitan centers, in the northeast and southeast portions of the state, including the state capital; the proposed improvement will relieve congestion on West Wichita's future arterial street system and provide improved access to the Wichita Municipal Airport, Kansas' largest air terminal.
