Plans for major construction project for the 94 corridor between 70 and 364


     The City of St. Charles is currently in the design phase of a major $56 Million dollar road project 
for Highway 94 between 70 and 364. The new project will do away with the stop lights along the 3 
mile stretch of 94. The current highway will be replaced with a 4 to 6 lane interstate type road, along with interchanges, overpasses, and one way outer roads. It's also likely that the speed limit will be increased from the current limits of 45 and 55 mph.

The new projects goal is to decrease congestion, improve safety, and spur economic development in the area. It's likely that the project will take place in phases over several years. Phase one could begin as soon as 2019 with a 94 interchange at Muegge Road and Hemsath Road.
