Each of these concerns is addressed below. <br />(1) Years of Disruptive Construction. Construction details and associated impacts are discussed <br />on page 3 -197 of the EA /DEIR. The most disruptive construction activities would be limited to a <br />24 -month period; however, these activities would be sequenced by segment so that any one <br />segment would experience disruption for a portion (no more than six months) of the construction <br />duration. A comprehensive community outreach program would be developed prior to the start <br />of construction activities. For business owners and commercial property owners, the disruption <br />of construction activities would involve multiple construction crews operating along the corridor <br />simultaneously.
