US 2 (County NN to Michigan State Line)

design

We are proposing to improve 9.6 miles of US 2 in Florence County. The purpose of the proposed improvements are to address deficiencies in the roadway, drainage system and structures, as well as inconsistencies in bicycle and pedestrian facilities and safety standards. The project is necessary due to deteriorated pavement conditions, drainage issues caused by deteriorated curb and gutter and culverts, structural deterioration of bridge B-19-006, inconsistent bicycle and pedestrian accommodations near Twin Falls Road, and substandard existing guardrail. Proposed improvements include: Resurfacing the existing asphalt pavement including travel lane, shoulders, turn lanes and sideroadsReplacement of deteriorated cross culvertsAdjustments, repairs, and replacements of curb and gutter, surface drains, inlets and guardrail as necessaryMitigate the erosion and drainage issue at Crosscut RoadDeck, parapet, and abutment surface repair on the bridge structure over the Menominee River (B-19-006) at the Michigan borderWiden paved shoulders near Twin Falls Road and possibly update the roadway shoulder section near County NN to be consistent with other sections of the roadway
