Harrisonburg Public Works will host an open house at the Simms Center where the public may learn more and ask questions about roadway reconfiguration projects and learn specific details about projects proposed for summer 2023.
The project extends East Kaylor Park Drive to the site of Harrisonburg’s second high school and connects to S. Main Street south of Pointe Drive.
The project makes multiple improvements to South Main Street in the vicinity of the I-81 Exit 243 interchange.
The project adds a 3' wide concrete median on S. Main Street from just south of Mosby Rd to Stone Spring Rd/Erickson Ave, with a break to maintain a full access entrance to Dukes Plaza.
This project addresses multiple safety concerns on the Port Republic Road corridor between Hunters Rd and Devon Lane, as identified in the Port Republic Road Safety and Operations Study
This project extends the eastbound Port Republic Road left turn lane at Bluestone Drive from 100' of storage for vehicles to 300'.
The project realigns University Blvd between the old convocation center parking lot and Forest Hill Road at the Oak Hill Drive intersection.
The new Toter system utilizes a Toter trash cart that attaches to a tipper plate, attached to each of the City's sanitation trucks, to lift the 96- or 48-gallon Toter trash carts provided by Public Works for use at each of the serviced addresses.
The study includes information about existing parking supply and usage, as well as short- and long-term supply and demand forecasts for parking in the downtown area.
South Main Street (Route 11) is a major arterial route with observed operational issues at the intersection of Erickson Avenue/Stone Spring Road, which has several major left turning movements, as well as existing safety concerns on the corridor extending to the south.
