Abstract

The proposed will improve a total of approximately 1 mile of State Route (SR) 133 from 25" Street (Colquitt County Mile Post 14.3) to Regency Village (Colquitt County Mile Post 13.6) including realigning Old Adel Road and S.E. 5'h Avenue. The project is located approximately 4 miles inside the city limits of Moultrie and 0.5 miles east of SR 35JEast Moultrie Bypass. This safety project is within the project limits of STP-032-2(28) and has an accelerated schedule in order to address safety concerns at the intersection of Old Adel Road and S.E. Fifth Avenue. Improvements consist of widening SR 133 to provide turn lanes as required, a 14-foot center turn lane, curb and gutter, and sidewalk throughout the corridor. Old Adel Road would be realigned to intersect SR 133 at a 90 degree angle. S.E. Fifth Avenue and Industrial Drive would be realigned to intersect at an improved skew angle of 80 degrees with a traffic signal. A cul-de-sac would be provided on the existing S.E. Fifth Avenue in order to provide access for the residents onto the realigned S.E. Fifth Avenue. Improvements consist of widening SR 133 to provide right-turn lanes at the proposed realignment of Old Adel Road, WMTM Road, Industrial Drive, 27th Street, and realigned 5th Avenue S.E. Improvements would also include a 14-foot center turn lane, curb and gutter, and sidewalk throughout the corridor. Old Adel Road would be realigned to intersect SR 133 at a 90- degree angle. 5th Avenue S.E. and Industrial Drive would be realigned to intersect at an improved skew angle of approximately 80 degrees with a traffic signal. A cul-de-sac would be provided on the existing 5th Avenue S.E. in order to provide access for the residents onto the realigned 5th Avenue S.E. Drainage improvements extend approximately 300 feet beyond Regency Village in order to address existing flooding issues in the area. Approximately 3.17 acres of right-of-way and 0.57 acre of permanent easement would be required for the proposed project.
