Lower Richland Blvd Widening

District 11

The project consists of widening the existing roadway to five lanes (two lanes in each direction with a 15‐foot center median) from Garners Ferry Road (US76/378) toward Rabbit Run (S‐2089/404) for an approximate distance of 1300 feet. After 1300 feet, widen the existing road to three lanes (one lane in each direction with a 15‐foot center median) to the intersection with Rabbit Run (S‐2089 / 404). Extend the existing sidewalk along the east side of Lower Richland Boulevard to Garners Ferry Road. Provide a sidewalk on the west side of Lower Richland Boulevard from Rabbit Run to Garners Ferry Road. A roundabout will be constructed at the intersection of Lower Richland Boulevard and Rabbit Run. Improve the skew angle for the northbound approach on Lower Richland Blvd at Garners Ferry Rd.
