The roadway will be widened to increase the shoulder width, minor alignment modifications will improve sight distance, full depth roadway reconstruction to lower a vertical crest/ improve sight lines, milling and resurfacing the roadway, and new accessible sidewalks. Bicycle accommodations will consist of a 5 foot shoulder.
