Document Description
The Avenue 12 and Road 35 Intersection Improvement Project intends to construct left hand turn pockets on Avenue 12. Construction will include widening Avenue 12 to the North to accommodate the new turn pockets. Road 35 in the vicinity of Avenue 12 will be reconstructed to match the new intersection transition grades. The intersection widening work will include roadway excavation, subgrade compaction, placement of Class II Aggregate Base, and placement Hot Mix Asphalt. In addition to the intersection improvements, Avenue 12 from Gaston Road to approximately 2500 feet east will be rehabilitated. The rehabilitation work will include cold planning at the match points and an Asphalt Rubber Binder Chip Seal followed by a Hot Mix Asphalt Overlay. Minimal amounts of Right of Way will be required for the intersection work at the NE corner of Road 35 and Avenue 12. In addition, prescriptive right of way will be perfected along the southwest and northeast portion of Road 35. No additional automobile lanes will be constructed. The intersection will be re-stripped, and rumble stripped with new pavement markings.
