| The
DEIS is the culmination of the research which justifies the Woodhaven Road Extension
Project which was submitted to the Federal Highway Adminstration of the United
States Department of Transportation. It was submitted on April 7, 2003. - It
was submitted on the premise that PENNDOT's proposed actions would relieve congestion
in the entire Project Area, including Byberry Road between Route 1 and Route 232.
- Since
PENNDOT's proposed actions include constructing an Extension of the Woodhaven
Expressway into the area in which PENNDOT is charged with relieving congestion,
it is accurate to state that PENNDOT will be increasing congestion - not relieving
congestion - since they are increasing road capacity.

relieve congestion.
