Resolution approving the plans and specifications for the Steven Road West, Norwood Drive to State Orchard Road. Project #PW22-16 |
|
| | | | | | | | Background/Discussion
This project is the final segment associated with the East Beltway project.
The East Beltway project has improved the transportation network in eastern Council Bluffs by completing Eastern Hills Drive between US Highway 6 and Iowa Highway 92, while providing improved connections to developments along Greenview Road, Steven Road, and Cottonwood Road.
The Steven Road West project will construct a new Steven Road segment from Norwood Drive to State Orchard Road. The continuity for the local transportation system will support future land development, increases the capacity of existing roads to accommodate traffic demands and improves emergency access.
The project is eligible for Federal funding from remaining earmarks of $1.2M and the City’s allocation of STBG funds. Federal funds will support 80% of the improvement costs, and the remaining 20% of construction costs will be paid by the City using sales tax funds. The estimated construction cost is $3,831,100. The City portion is estimated to be $518,000.
