Document Description
The project involves the widening of Eisenhower Drive from two lanes to four lanes from Avenue 50 to approximately 700 feet north of Calle Tampico in the City of La Quinta. The objectives of the project are to improve the level of vehicular service on Eisenhower Drive and to reduce response times for emergency vehicles. In addition, the bridge over La Quinta Evacuation Channel would be widened to match the realigned paved width of Eisenhower Drive. A retaining wall would be constructed from the bridge to approximately 600 feet to the north to support the widened roadway and parkway on the east side of Eisenhower Drive.
