Document Description
The proposed safety improvement project would realign the existing 35 mph horizontal curve on SR 168 in the vicinity of Shepherd and Academy Avenue. The proposed design would realign the highway to the north side of the existing curve allowing drivers to maintain a speed of 55 mph. The proposed design also includes 12 ft travel lanes and 8 ft shoulders, reconstruction of the intersection at SR 168 and Shepherd Avenue (alternative #2 proposes to close the intersection), relocation of utility poles, and storm drainage improvements within the project limits. Approximately 3 acres of additional right-of-way would be necessary to construct the new roadway segment.
