Purpose of the Virtual Open House
The purpose of the virtual Open House is to present the most recent design for this segment of SH-28, describe the potential environmental impacts, obtain public input, and outline the next steps and proposed project schedule.
Due to concerns over the spread of COVID-19, this open house was a web-based format (no in-person meeting).
Project Overview
ODOT is developing design plans for improving this segment of SH-28 while taking into consideration the cost of construction, right-of-way and utilities impacts, and environmental constraints. To increase safety, ODOT proposes to improve driving surfaces, reconfigure skewed driveways and entrances, realign county road intersections, widen shoulders, and extend and/or replace roadway structures and the five reinforced concrete box bridges. The rural portion of the highway will be widened to create two 12-foot wide paved driving lanes with 10-foot wide paved shoulders on existing alignment. Eastbound and westbound left-hand turning lanes will be added at the intersection of County Road NS-429 and SH-28. In the town of Adair, the highway will be widened to create a curb and gutter section with two 12-foot wide driving lanes and a 14-foot wide center turning lane. Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant sidewalks will be added on both sides of road. The highway will remain open during construction, and access to residences and businesses will be maintained throughout the project. In town, a temporary lane shift on a north offset alignment will be used to keep the road open during construction.
