by FHWA and other federal agencies.

SUMMARY: This notice announces actions taken by FHWA and other Federal

relate to a proposed interchange on I-93 and a combination of new 
roadway and existing roadway improvements on a corridor extending 3.2 
miles from I-93 in the Town of Londonderry to New Hampshire State Route 
102 in the Town of Derry in Rockingham County in the State of New 
Hampshire. Those actions grant licenses, permits, and approvals for the 
project.

DATES: By this notice, FHWA is advising the public of final agency 
actions subject to 23 U.S.C. 139(l)(1). A claim seeking judicial review 
of the Federal agency actions that are covered by this notice will be 
barred unless the claim is filed on or before August 6, 2020. If the 
Federal law that authorizes judicial review of a claim provides a time 
period of less than 150 days for filing such claim, then that shorter 
time period still applies.

and other transportation improvements to reduce congestion and improve 
safety along State Route 102 (NH 102), from I-93 easterly through 
downtown Derry, and to promote economic vitality in the Derry/
