Project Description
The reconstructed street will feature a consistent 12’ vehicle travel lane, 5’ bicycle lanes, curb and gutter, improved street lighting, and 5’ sidewalks on both sides of the street. Intersections will be improved to provide adequate turning lanes including either a traffic signal at S. Nicolet Road and W. Spencer Street at the west end of the project. The section of existing roadway between S Nicolet Rd and S Timmers Ln is an urban section and will be pulverized and relaid.
Project Justification
The proposed project will reconstruct W. Spencer Street from S. Nicolet Road to S. Bluemound Drive that currently has an inconsistent cross section, insufficient turning lanes, inadequate intersection controls, extremely narrow shoulders, transit stops lacking infrastructure, insufficient street lighting, and very limited pedestrian and bicycle facilities.
