Document Description
The Del Norte (DN) 199 Roundabout is a 201.010 Safety Improvements project located in Del Norte County on United States (US) Route 199, post mile (PM) T0.8, at the intersection with Elk Valley Cross Road (EVCR). This project proposes to improve safety by reducing the frequency and severity of collisions at this suburban four-way intersection by constructing a single-lane, four-legged roundabout.
Additional features include concrete splitter islands on the east and west side of the roundabout, a shared-use path for pedestrians and bicyclists, an improved lighting system, flashing beacons, and drainage work. This project is programmed in the 2022 SHOPP with a scheduled construction year of 2026.
