PROJECT NO. 0932(051)~67595

PROJECT NAME: JNU Egan Dr. Salmon Creek Intersection Safety Improvements

The Egan Drive Salmon Creek Intersection Safety Improvements will construct a new acceleration lane approximately 1,200 feet long for vehicles entering the outbound lanes of Egan Drive from Glacier Highway, and extend the existing deceleration lane for a total lane length of 900 feet for vehicles exiting the inbound lanes of Egan Drive to Channel Drive.  Shoulders will also be widened to 9 feet.   Bridge No. 1188, also referred to as the Salmon Creek Bridge just north of this intersection will be widened on both sides to accommodate the additional lanes and widened shoulders.  The additional lanes will require the relocation of a signal pole, a self-supporting power pole, and luminaries adjacent to the acceleration lanes, and other related appurtenances.

The Engineer's Estimate is greater than $20,000,000. All work shall be completed by August 31, 2016. This is a Race Neutral project as defined in Section 120 of the Special Provisions.
