Val Vista Drive Improvements and Val Vista Sewer Rehabilitation Projects, Design-Bid-Build Contract (District 2)
The Val Vista Drive Improvements project will improve safety, increase capacity, and reduce congestion that occurs at the Val Vista and Southern Avenue intersection by adding through lanes and dual left turn lanes, new raised medians, reconstruction of a portion of existing roadway, and other improvements to include new curb and gutter, sidewalk, ADA facilities, bike lanes, signing, traffic signal equipment, street lighting, landscaping, pavement markings, and transit facilities. The project will construct the full build out of Val Vista Drive from US 60 to Pueblo Avenue.
