At intersection with Alt U.S. Route 58
This study will address safety, congestion mitigation, capacity preservation (to keep traffic flowing smoothly), and transportation demand management (TDM) needs at the intersection of Route 19 and Alternate Route 58 from A Hanson Drive to Resilient Way. Study elements will include, but will not be limited to traffic signal timing, access management, intersection geometric improvements, and other traffic improvements. The project recommendations that come from this study will be developed into funding applications for SMART SCALE Round 7.
The Phase 1 survey regarding current transportation needs at the intersection of Route 19 and Alternate Route 58 from A Hanson Drive to Resilient Way was completed in June 2025. The study team will use the input obtained from the public to better focus on solutions and develop alternatives to address the identified needs.
