Project Scope: Safety and capacity improvements are needed from North Turkey Creek Road to just north of the existing access to the Evergreen Professional Center. Plans were designed by Muller Engineering. American Civil Constructors will construct the project.

-The addition of four-foot paved, plus two-feet gravel shoulders in most areas
-A two-way left-turn lane from the Evergreen South Cafe to Marshmerry Lane
-A southbound left-turn lane at Marshmerry Lane

Progress Update:
The North Turkey Creek detour road has been constructed and is open to traffic.
