In Design: Air Terminal Interchange (ATI) Western Intersection

This project is located in Norfolk and includes improvements to the Interstate 564 (I-564) Intermodal Connector highway that connects I-564 to Hampton Boulevard.

The purpose of this project is to support Naval operations, facilities and emergency readiness by designing and constructing a new intersection within the western side of the I-564 Intermodal Connector.  The intersection is designed to expand the existing one-directional ramp between the I-564 Intermodal Connector and Seabee Road to accommodate two-way traffic and support access to Naval Station Norfolk’s pass office, the commercial vehicle inspection station and entrance gates 5 and 6. 

 

Benefits 

The new western intersection will include the following:

• Contruction of expanded lanes between Seabee Road and the Intermodal Connector to allow for bi-directional traffic. Vehicles will be able to enter the Intermodal Connector directly from Hampton Boulevard. 
• Installation of new turn lanes for vehicles traveling from Hampton Boulevard to points east or westbound on the Intermodal Connector.
• Addition of an intersection signal on the Intermodal Connector.
