ACTION: Notice of limitation on claims for judicial review of actions
by FHWA and other Federal agencies.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This notice announces actions taken by FHWA and other Federal
agencies, on behalf of the Wisconsin Department of Transportation
(WisDOT), that are final. The actions relate to a proposed highway
project, Interstate 94 (I-94) East-West Corridor, 70th Street to 16th

permits, and approvals for the project.
DATES: By this notice, FHWA is advising the public of final agency
actions subject to 23 U.S.C. 139(l)(1). A claim seeking judicial review
of the Federal agency actions on the listed highway project will be
barred unless the claim is filed on or before August 19, 2024. If the
Federal law that authorizes judicial review of a claim provides a time
period of less than 150 days for filing such claim, then that shorter
time period still applies.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that FHWA has taken
final agency actions related to the I-94 East-West Corridor Project in
Milwaukee County, Wisconsin. FHWA, in cooperation with WisDOT, prepared
a Supplemental Draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) and combined
Supplemental Final EIS/Record of Decision (ROD) to reconstruct
approximately 3.5 miles of I-94 from 70th Street to 16th Street in
Milwaukee County, Wisconsin. The purpose of the I-94 East-West Corridor
project is to address the deteriorated condition of I-94, obsolete
roadway and bridge design, existing and future traffic demand, and high
crash rates.
The project includes reconstructing and adding a through lane along
I-94 in each direction along its existing alignment; reconstructing the
68th/70th Street interchange; reconstructing the Hawley Road
interchange as a partial interchange; reconstruction of the Mitchell
Boulevard interchange; reconstructing the existing system interchange
at I-94/WIS 175/Brewers Boulevard (Stadium Interchange) as a diverging
diamond service interchange; reconstructing the 35th Street and 27th
Street interchanges; and local roadway improvements to offset impacts
to local traffic from interchange modifications.
The actions taken by the Federal agencies on this project, and laws
under which such actions were taken, are described in the combined
Supplemental Final EIS/ROD, approved on March 8, 2024, and in other
documents in the FHWA or WisDOT project records. The combined
Supplemental Final EIS/ROD, and other project records are available by
contacting FHWA or WisDOT at the addresses provided above. The combined
Supplemental Final EIS/ROD can also be viewed on the project website
at: https://wisconsindot.gov/
