US 30/218 interchange still an option after all

The advance Project Statement for this week’s meeting about changes to the US 30/218 intersection in Benton County didn’t mention an interchange, but the large maps  available include two options: An interchange with ramps in the northwest and southeast quadrants, or the J-turn intersection. Either one moves the four-lane slightly south of the existing route, and continues westward just south of the two-lane.
