2028 Broadway (TH-29) Street and Utility Reconstruction Project

Project Purpose

The purpose of the project is to improve aging infrastructure facilities (pavement and underground utilities), improve pedestrian and bicycle facilities, increase pedestrian and vehicular safety, and address access and parking along the TH 29 corridor.

Project Description

The TH 29 Project, from 8th Avenue to south of TH 94 will encompass approximately 3.04 miles and be located within the City of Alexandria (District 4) in Douglas County. The proposed project consists of urban reconstruction from 8th to 18th Avenue, including replacement of existing pavement, underground utilities (storm sewer, watermain, and sanitary sewer), lighting, signals and ADA facilities (including accessibility improvements to curb ramps, sidewalks, crossings, and driveways). There will be a ¾ access constructed at the 17th Avenue intersection and new signals constructed at the 13th Avenue and 18th Avenue intersections.

The watermain and sanitary sewer facilities are going to be replaced by ALP Utilities and ALASD.

Additionally, a mill and overlay of the pavement surface between 18th Ave to TH 94 bridge, or exit 103, and replacement of four signal systems and ADA upgrades will occur at the intersections of 22nd Avenue, 30th Avenue, 34th Avenue, and 44th Avenue. Several culverts, entrance pipes, and aprons along this section will be replaced or rehabilitated.

Traffic Management System (TMS) fiber optic will be installed from 7th Avenue to just south of TH 94.

Planned Project Schedule

This project is scheduled for a letting date of August 25, 2027.

Construction will occur from May 2028 and may continue through October 2029.

Phasing is anticipated to utilize multiple block closures with localized detours and a TH 29 through traffic detour route around the project location.
