Project Description
The City of Lincoln has selected E&A Consulting Group, Inc. to perform engineering services for design of the reconstruction of South 56th Street from Old Cheney Road to Shadow Pines Drive. The roadway will be designed as a 4-lane paved section with turn lanes and a raised median.
Project Highlights
- Right and left turn lanes will be built at London Road and Waltz Road, and these intersections will be designed to accommodate future traffic signals when warranted.
- Right and left turn lanes will also be built at Shadow Pines Drive.
- A new drainage structure will be built at Beal Slough.
- A pedestrian under-crossing will be built as part of the Beal Slough drainage structure.
- Ordinance changes were brought back before the City Council which were approved in the fall of 2005 and the construction of medians were approved.
If you have specific questions about this project or would like to see the design plans, please contact Kris Humphrey with the City of Lincoln Engineering Services at 402-441-7711.
Project Status
Design is scheduled to begin in January 2012, with a public information meeting to be held in spring of 2012. Construction is scheduled to begin in late-summer of 2013.
