This project consists of the widening and improvement of Old Petersburg Road and Old Evans Road. The proposed concept includes a four-lane (two lanes in each direction) roadway with bike lanes and a 20-foot raised median on approximately 110-150' of proposed right-of-way. The roadway would also have urban shoulders, including curb and gutter, and sidewalks. The widening of Old Petersburg Road would start on existing location approximately 1,400 feet west of the intersection of Baston Road and extend to the intersection with Old Evans Road. From this point, the project would follow Old Evans Road in a northwesterly direction on existing location to Columbia Industrial Boulevard and then extend westward on new location to tie into Washington Road at the intersection with Towne Center Drive. A new bridge would be constructed to grade separate the roadway over the CSX Railroad. The total length of the project is 3.13 miles.
