SR 17 FROM CR 309/DEEP CREEK ROAD TO SR 172

construction work program

Proposed project will widen and improve SR 17 from CR 309/Deep Creek Road to SR 172 for a total length of approximately 7.0 miles. The proposed road section will include 4 travel lanes and a combination of median types. The first 2.5 miles of the project from Deep Creek Road to the intersection of Nickville Road/Pulliam Mill Road will be widened to 4 lanes with a 14’ flush median. 2.5 miles will transition to a 4-lane section with a 32’ depressed median and the remaining project length will transition down to a 3-lane section before it ties back into the existing 2 lane section. Also left-turn lanes, right-turn lanes, shoulder widening, at-grade railroad crossing improvements, and drainage improvements. Hartwell Railroad runs parallel to the north side of SR 17 for most of the corridor. Due to the proximity of the railroad to the edge of road, improvements on the north side of the road will be limited to right-turn lanes, shoulder improvements, and drainage improvements.
