Drivers can expect traffic impacts and potential delays along Missouri Route 14 (Mount Vernon Street) west of U.S. Route 160/Missouri Route 13 in Nixa when a widening project begins the week of June 1, the Missouri Department of Transportation said.
Route 14 will be widened to five lanes -- two lanes in each direction with a center-turn lane -- between Estes Street and a point west of Christian County Route M/Nicholas Road.
Here’s a look at the project:
-Widen Route 14 to five lanes – add a new lane in each direction, creating a five lane roadway with two lanes in each direction with a center-turn lane
-Add turn lanes at Nicholas Road, Truman Road and Tiffany Boulevard
-Install new storm drains with curb and gutter
-Replace traffic signals with new signals to accommodate the new lanes
-Build sidewalks in areas (City of Nixa contributing to the cost of sidewalks)
-Lane closings during lower traffic volume times
-Route 14 and side streets closed at times for storm drain pipe installations. Road closings announced well in advance of the traffic impacts.
-Business entrances closed half at a time or one entrance closed if other entrances exist. Businesses will be notified in advance of entrance work.
-Crews and equipment close to traffic in areas
The project is scheduled for completion by early June 2021.
The prime contractor is D & E Plumbing of Nixa.
The total estimated project cost is $8.4 million.
