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 updating design plans for improving SH-28 from just west of the US-69/SH-28 intersection in Adair, extending east through Pensacola to the SH-82/SH-28 intersection in Langley. 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 reinforced concrete box bridges. The rural portions of SH-28 will be widened to create two 12-foot wide paved driving lanes with 10-foot wide paved shoulders. In the town of Adair, the road will be widened to create a curb and gutter section with four 12-foot wide driving lanes, and a dedicated left turn lane at Gen. Harvey Hughes Ave. Sidewalks will also be added. Through the community of Pensacola, the roadway will transition to a curb and gutter section with four 12-foot wide driving lanes through the center of town, and then return to an open-section two-lane facility extending east towards Langley. The SH-82/SH-28 junction in Langley will be improved. These proposed improvements are consistent with the original Environmental Assessment scope. The highway will remain open during construction, and access to residences, businesses and the school will be maintained throughout the project.
