This week, Whoop-Up Drive/Scenic Drive interchange improvements will upgrade Scenic Drive South from 2 Avenue South to Whoop-Up Drive.
This includes two additional lanes of travel on Scenic Drive South (one northbound and one southbound) and a second lane along the westbound Whoop-Up Drive on-ramp.
Other improvements include:
- signal upgrades
- a multi-use asphalt path
- updated pedestrian crossings
These updates will improve motorist and pedestrian mobility along this busy corridor.
The first stage of work involves widening the Whoop-Up Drive on-ramp. Equipment and personnel will work in the green space located south of the on-ramp.
Lane closures are not involved with this stage. However, speed reductions will be in place along southbound Scenic Drive, westbound Whoop-Up Drive, and the Whoop-Up Drive on-ramp.
A flag person will also stop traffic along westbound Whoop-Up Drive when construction vehicles exit the work area.
The project is expected to be completed in November.
