  • Construct Outer Roads for improved connectivity north of Route 60
  • Construct eastbound Route 60 access ramps at Clinton Avenue
  • Construct westbound Route 60 access ramps near Skyline Road
  • Construct roundabout intersection of Loren Drive with westbound access ramps
  • Remove 2 signalized intersections and crossovers: Route C/K and Clinton Avenue
  • Remove 2 unsignalized intersections and crossovers: Skyline Drive and Lynch Drive

Traffic Impacts:

  • Lane closures on Route 60 at times
  • Narrowed lanes at times
  • During higher traffic volume, drivers can expect occasional delays
  • Crews and equipment close to traffic
  • Temporary partial driveway and access disruptions

Weather and/or construction delays will alter the work schedule.
