The southern portion of the improvement has an urban cross-section with curb and gutter and storm sewer. The northern portion has a rural cross-section with shoulders and ditches. These improvements include traffic signal improvements, roadway lighting, two bridge replacements and replacements of several large box culverts. Detailed traffic management plans were developed to ensure safe and efficient travel through the site.
