Document Description
Construct NB and SB auxiliary lanes on Interstate 5 near Cottonwood, from 0.3 mile north of the Fourth Street Over crossing to the Deschutes Road Under crossing. The project will relieve congestion and improve safety. The work is needed because of the variable grade climb at this location, where typical merge movements of trucks and other slower-moving vehicles are causing mainline vehicles to slow and change lanes. Work includes adding median lanes, adding a concrete median barrier, placing a crash attenuator at the northern limit of the barrier, widening the left shoulder to 10-ft standard width, placing asphalt concrete pavement between the edge of shoulder and the concrete barrier, and relocating median drainage.
