Q <br />A <br />4. Q <br />A <br />QUESTIONS MOST FREQUENTLY ASKED BY THE PUBLIC <br />AND THE ANSWERS TO THESE QUESTIONS <br />Why is Bristol Street going to be widened? <br />Because the road is presently subject to excessive traffic <br />and congestion. The improvement of the street is neces- <br />sary to carry traffic safely and efficiently. It is projected <br />that even greater amounts of traffic will be carried in the <br />future. <br />How will the widening of Bristol Street be accomplished? In <br />phases, all at once, or by intersection? <br />This has not been determined. Each of these approaches <br />will be evaluated through the course of the environmental <br />and engineering studies. The phasing of the project may <br />also depend on the availability of funds. <br />What is an "environmental impact statement "? <br />This is a report which is prepared for informational pur- <br />poses to inform decision makers and the public regarding <br />the environmental consequences of a project. <br />What specific issues will be looked at in the environmental <br />impact statement? <br />The possible impacts of the street widening will be analyzed <br />by looking at the following topics: <br />1 .
