    ​​Jacksonville Road and Almshouse Road Intersection Improvements

    Project Location



    Overview

    The intersection of Jacksonville Road and Almshouse Road currently experiences significant traffic backups during the AM and PM peak hours.  This is partially due to high traffic volumes, including trucks and school buses, the lack of dedicated turning lanes and poor intersection geometry.  The poor intersection geometry is due to the presence of a retaining wall and stream that is located adjacent to the travel lane on the southeastern corner of the intersection.  Trucks and school buses turning from Jacksonville Road onto Almshouse Road often encroach into the westbound Almshouse Road travel lane.  The intersection also experiences flooding during storm events.

    The S.R. 2089, Section ALM project will address congestion and operational issues at the intersection.  Improvements will consist of the installation of a single lane roundabout at the intersection of Jacksonville Road and Almshouse Road, widening for an eastbound left turn lane at the intersection of Old Jacksonville Road and Almshouse Road, shoulder widening, drainage improvements and signing upgrades.  

    The project is presently in the preliminary engineering phase of the project development process.
