Bridge projects, roadwork updates; pedestrian crossing request denied after safety review

Sep 9, 2026

Traffic safety engineer Randy reported on active construction projects including a 10.3‑mile County D safety project, Hills Road bridge replacement delays and Larkin Road closure for a 2026–2027 bridge project; a request for a pedestrian crossing near 9 Mile Tavern was denied due to lack of a crash pattern.

The full story

Randy, the committee's traffic safety engineer, presented construction and safety updates. He said the County D safety improvement (10.3 miles) remains ongoing; Hills Road bridge replacement had not yet started because contractor submittals were incomplete; Larkin Road bridge work began with a planned May 2026–November 2027 schedule and will require closure and signed detours.
