SR 50 at the intersection of Highland Ave Project

ongoing

The project will reconstruct the existing traffic signal at the intersection of East Colonial Drive (State Road 50) and Highland Avenue with upgraded signal poles and signal heads. The project also proposes to reconstruct and extend the curb on all four corners to help define the on-street parking and reduce pedestrian crossing distances at the intersection. The curb reconstruction also includes modifications to more easily accommodate large vehicles making turns onto Highland Avenue. Other safety improvements include reconstructing the sidewalk curb ramps in accordance with current Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards, upgrading pedestrian signals, and constructing sidewalk connections to bus pads. Necessary drainage modifications are also planned.
