The intersection of 1st Street and Cornhusker Highway has been identified for traffic signal replacement and geometric improvements. The existing traffic signals were installed in the 1980s, and since that time, traffic volumes and travel patterns have changed. This project will consist of reviewing traffic counts, pedestrian activity, and sight distance requirements, identifying the type of control and paving needed, and construction activities.
The project is currently in design. Construction is tentatively planned for 2027.
Lane closures will be required to facilitate construction. Full closure of some legs of the intersection and detours may be required.
Sidewalk and trail closures with detours will be required.
