The ProPEL US 30 East study team is once again asking for Hoosiers’ input as it starts the second phase in the Planning and Environment Linkage (PEL) study along US 30 in northern Indiana. The ProPEL US 30 East study team will host two public information meetings in New Haven and Columbia City.
These meetings will detail what we’ve heard so far from our diverse corridor community, the data analysis that we’ve conducted, and seek public feedback about the Purpose and Need for the ProPEL US 30 East study. This includes identifying transportation needs and developing a purpose of improvements. INDOT intends to use the information, analysis, and decisions from the PEL study process to inform future federal environmental reviews conducted in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The meetings will be held in an open-house format with a presentation:
• June 8, 2023, from 5 to 7 p.m. EST
