Project Overview

This project will reconstruct the intersection of Eastway and Shamrock Drive. Feasibility plans for the project include widening of the roadways through the intersection to a complete realignment. The project team will identify the best land use configuration as well as analyze realignment of the intersection. The project has overlapping limits with the Shamrock Drive Complete Street project, and the projects will coordinate to avoid unnecessary overlap.

Project Goals

This is a multi-modal intersection project providing additional vehicular capacity, safer pedestrian accommodations and includes bicycle facilities at Eastway Drive and Shamrock Drive.

Public Involvement

The project team is planning to host one public meeting to get community input. Meeting details will be shared once they are determined.
