Southeast Sixth Street extension inside access

This alternative elevates and extends Southeast Sixth Street over 114th Avenue Southeast and I-405 to Lake Hills Connector and builds direct I-405 express toll lane access ramps to and from the south. It provides bike lanes and sidewalks on the new east-west connection.
