Rock Road Construction Set to Begin August 13
August 10, 2007
The Rock Road reconstruction project is set to begin on August 13 and expected to last more than a year. Cornejo and Sons will serve as the contractor.
Rock Road will be improved from James St. to Patriot Ave. (63rd St.). The portion of the project between James St. and Meadowlark Blvd. will be reconfigured to provide a five-lane section with a continuous left turn lane. The majority of this work will be accomplished between the existing curbs with limited effect on traffic.
Rock Road between Meadowlark Blvd. and Patriot Ave. will be completely reconstructed to an urban section with storm sewers, curbs and gutters. The construction in this area will provide a minimum of five lanes, including a continuous left turn lane. The traffic signals at Meadowlark will be reconfigured, and new signals will be installed at Tall Tree Rd.
Construction will begin on the west side with the existing northbound lanes being used to carry traffic. After construction of the west side improvements, traffic will be moved to the newly constructed pavement while the east side is constructed. Three lanes of traffic, including a continuous left turn lane, will be provided during this phase of construction.
