Blythewood Road Widening

District 2

The proposed scope recommends a 5‐lane (4 travel lanes with a center turn lane improvement from I‐77 west to Syrup Mill Road. Provisions for bicycle and pedestrian accommodation are proposed through construction of offset, shared use paths. This project also includes a double‐lane roundabout at the intersection of Community Road and Cobblestone. Leftover funds from Blythewood Area Improvements will be moved over to cover the shortage on this project once approved by County Council.

 

Project Status:

  • The project is currently in the final stages of construction. The contractor, Cherokee, is actively completing curb and gutter installation along the north side of the project corridor while simultaneously constructing the shared-use path. As part of ongoing operations, Cherokee is also placing asphalt pavement. Upon completion of the paving activities, the project will reach substantial completion. Following this milestone, construction efforts will transition to the north side of the site for the development of the detention pond, which represents the final remaining scope item prior to project closeout.
