Project purpose
The asphalt roundabouts along Monticello Road have experienced failures due to heavy turn movements and stop and start traffic. Traditional mill-and-overlay maintenance strategies are ineffective, requiring maintenance work every five years to prevent deterioration of the asphalt base. Reconstructing the roundabouts with concrete reduces maintenance intervals to every 15 to 20 years.
Project description
The project will reconstruct pavement at the four roundabouts along Monticello Road between
83rd Street and Prairie Star Parkway by replacing asphalt with 8 inches of concrete pavement on the roundabouts and approaches. Deteriorated curb and gutter, sidewalks and brick pavers will be replaced as needed.
The project also includes minor repairs on the Monticello Road Bridge over Coon Creek and a mill and overlay of the remaining sections of Monticello Road, the Black Hoof Park parking lots, and 95th Street from Monticello Road to 400 feet east of Aurora Street.
Design is scheduled for 2026 with construction in 2027.
