Public debate on I-895 funding and Bristol County routes
Officials outlined funding shares for I-895 with 90 percent federal and 10 percent state for the 1895 segment, and 70 percent federal and 30 percent state for other major highway work. Several corridor options through Bristol Warren and Aquidneck Island were presented, including a second bridge near Mt Hope and potential mass transit revival. Public workshops will shape the EIS draft due by summer 1977 and a final public hearing will follow.
