Document Description
The proposed improvements include the widening of the existing Dillon Road roadway from two to four lanes, the installation of median curb, the installation of a new traffic signal at Harrison Place, and the interconnection of two signals. The proposed improvements will be constructed within the existing 80 foot right-of-way. The termini are from just south of SR 86 to the southwest, and just north of I-10 to the northeast. The purpose of the proposed improvements is to provide motorists with a safe and uniform street width between SR 86 and I-10. This section of street serves as part of the I-10 / SR 86 interchange, as it is the only means for westbound I-10 traffic to proceed southbound on SR 86 and for northbound SR 86 traffic to proceed eastbound on I-10. The proposed road improvements are necessary to avoid major traffic congestion and improve safety. The project has independent utility; no future construction would be necessary to fully utilize the design capabilities included in the proposed project.
