LOCATION: Rogers, Arkansas
Rapid growth in southwest Rogers over the late 90’s gradually increased traffic on the existing street network and specifically Dixeland Road. Crafton Tull was retained by the City of Rogers to prepare plans and construction documents for the needed improvements to Dixeland Road in three phases. Phase I widened the existing road to four lanes from Oak Street to New Hope Road and included reconstruction of the New Hope Road intersection with multi-lane approaches and turning lanes. Phase II provided a three-lane section from Price Lane to Perry Road, while Phase III filled in the gap between New Hope Road and Perry Road with a three-lane section. All phases consisted of asphalt paved streets with curb and gutter, sidewalks, and storm drains. Phase II also included the design and construction of a 10-barrel box culvert in a regulatory floodway to replace an obsolete bridge over Blossom Way Creek.
