That is, unless I'm right in my assumption that they deem a dual-lane loop of that radius to be unacceptable from a safety perspective, in which case the alternative would be far more than $3M to move the substation, or $50-100M for the interchange to be a 4 level monster of which there is only one in the entire county.
