The goal of this one-season construction project is to:

• prolong the life of the Douglas Highway - roundabout, bridge and road surfaces
• update the pedestrian facilities to current standards
• improve current drainage features

This project will work to improve and resurface a portion of the Douglas Highway from Egan Drive to Nome Street, including the roundabout and bridge surface. 

• Reconstruct pedestrian ramps, driveways and sidewalks to be ADA compliant
• Resurface Douglas Highway from Egan Drive to Nome Street
• Resurface the roundabout
• Resurface Douglas Bridge and level existing bridge joints
• Improve drainage features

Throughout the project there will be periods that traffic will be stop controlled. Detours will be in place and Secon will work to accommodate all road users. Traffic conditions will be updated weekly, here on the schedule page. 

As a reminder to use caution when traveling in work zones.  Please watch for and follow direction from construction signs and flaggers when present throughout the construction zone.

It will be necessary for construction to close the sidewalk and bicycle lanes along Douglas Highway to perform resurfacing work. When this occurs there will be alternative access through the construction zone for non-motorized users.

Yes, driving lanes during and after construction will be wide enough for all vehicles that use the road presently.

When completed the project will not affect the configuration of the road.

• Traffic lanes will stay the same width
• On-street parking will remain
