Falling between 84 and 87 was 300. The local arterial route was used by motorists to link I-87 and I-84. The reconstruction provides direct connections, through a new toll plaza, between the two interstates while still maintaining access to Rte. 300. A new maintenance facility was designed for LEED Silver Certification. The civil site features wetlands and innovative use of recycled materials.
