Add left-turn lanes at Ferguson and Bradley intersections, with a transition to two-lanes between the intersections with lane widths that will closely match the width of the current lanes to provide a safer roadway for all users and to reduce wait times at the intersection.
Construction underway
Updated: Dec. 21, 2023
Projects funded through the new Community Road Fund will increase safety, relieve congestion and maintain local roads.
The existing road dimensions include two 11-foot travel lanes and two 5-foot paved shoulders. The design includes constructing a 12-foot wide left-turn lane at Ferguson Road and a 12-foot wide left-turn lane at Bradley Road with buffered bike lane shoulders.
Crash data from 2016–2018 shows most incidents as rear-end crashes during daytime hours.
Schedule
- Design: Dec. 2020 - May 2023
- Right of Way: July 2022 - May 2023
- Construction: August 2023 - June 2024
Traffic impacts
Rolling single lane closures may be needed during construction.
Current activities
Excavation and preparations for paving are complete. Before pausing for winter, the contractor will be paving the base layer of asphalt and attaching temporary raised pavement markers to show lane markings on the road. Orange cones and barriers will remain along the roadway until construction is complete.
In the spring, we'll be back to pave the final layer and add permanent road striping. Driveway connections will occur after paving is complete along the main part of the roadway. Afterwards, gravel will be placed along shoulders and at gravel driveways.
Funding
