Improving a community’s overall roadway travel experience
With Columbus-Muscogee County anticipating significant growth of population and traffic in northern Columbus proper, and Moon Road being a major arterial in this section of town, they wanted to improve the roadway to alleviate current traffic congestion and mitigate future issues. The County reached out to our team to help.
We performed a detailed traffic analysis, developed functional design alternates, and evaluated land use impacts for Moon Road from Wilbur Drive to US 27/Veterans Parkway. Based on these findings, we developed roadway and traffic signal system plans for the Moon Road corridor. The project included improvements to the J.R. Allen Freeway off ramps, 17 side streets, and 5 traffic signals. Based on land use and right-of-way impacts, the project progressed in three phases around the US 80/J.R. Allen Parkway: interchange improvements, widening through a mixed land use area to US 27/Veteran’s Parkway, and widening through a residential area to Wilbur Drive.
The project provided the community with better traffic operations, additional mobility options with the advent of pedestrian sidewalks, and improved aesthetics through consistent roadway sections and landscaping.
