<HD SOURCE="HED">SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:</HD>
Notice is hereby given that FHWA has taken final agency action by issuing approval for the following highway project in the State of Pennsylvania and State of Maryland: U.S. 6219, Section 050 Transportation Improvement Project. The purpose of the Project is to complete Corridor N of the Appalachian Development Highway System, to improve the system linkage in the region, provide safe and efficient access for motorists traveling on U.S. 219, and provide transportation infrastructure to support economic opportunities in existing and planned communities and employment/business centers and natural resource-based industries within the Appalachian Region.
The needs of the Project are:
• Existing U.S. 219 does not provide efficient mobility for trucks and freight.
• There are numerous roadway and geometric deficiencies present along the existing U.S. 219 alignment.
• The existing roadway infrastructure is a limiting factor in economic development opportunities in the Appalachian Region.
The actions by the Federal agency, and the laws under which such actions were taken, are described in the FHWA Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) for the project, signed May 29, 2025, in the Record of Decision (ROD) for the project, issued on May 29, 2025, and in other documents in the FHWA administrative record. The FEIS, ROD, and other documents in the FHWA administrative record files are available by contacting FHWA at the address provided above. The FEIS and ROD can also be viewed and downloaded from the project website at:
