long-range
Transportation Improvement Plan. |

- Rochford Road
The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), in cooperation with the South Dakota Department of
Transportation (SDDOT) and Pennington County are in the process of preparing an Environmental
Impact Statement (EIS) in compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and Section
106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) on proposed roadway improvements to South Rochford Road.
The proposed project would involve roadway improvements for approximately ten (10) miles of South Rochford Road,
between the Town of Rochford and its intersection with Deerfield Road. The proposed project is considered necessary
to improve year-round access to the Town of Rochford from the Deerfield Lake area.
HDR Engineering, Inc. out of Rapid City, SD has been selected by the Pennington County Commissioners to complete the EIS
and has developed a website for the project which can be found at South Rochford Road EIS.
