Document Description
The Horse Gulch Curve Safety Project (02-3J520) proposes to improve safety
along State Route (SR) 36 between Post Miles (PM) 15.7 and 16.1 by
enhancing roadway geometrics. Crashes at this location occur at a higher
rate than statewide average for similar facilities. Work will include earthwork,
removing existing asphalt concrete, vertically and horizontally realigning the
highway segment, installing 4-ft and 8-ft shoulders, installing centerline and
edge line rumble strips, replacing fencing, and replacing culverts. Project
funding is through the safety improvement (20.XX.201.010) component of
the State Highway Operation and Protection Program (SHOPP).
The Horse Gulch Gap Project (02-0K750) proposes to proactively improve
safety along SR 36 between PM 16.1 to 16.4 by enhancing roadway
geometrics. Work will include earthwork, removing existing asphalt concrete,
vertically and horizontally realigning the highway segment, installing 4-ft
shoulders, installing centerline and edge line rumble strips, replacing fencing,
and replacing culverts. Project funding is through the collision severity
reduction (20.XX.201.015) component of the District 2 SHOPP Minor Program.
The two projects will be combined for construction.
