Re: 72nd & D St Bridge over the UPRR Construction
I think 72nd over the UP tracks should happen soon. That'll be a real nightmare. That needs an extra lane from EB I-80 to SB 72nd down to F. Merging is white-knuckle with the current bridge. There will be an additional lane added between I-80 and L street. Just an extra lane to F for now. They have...

Re: Idea For 132nd and Giles Reroute
Maybe someday when the I-80 bridge is in need of replacement, they'll design it to where they can straighten 132nd more. But that is probably many decades away. 132nd in this area is only considered a collector; not even a minor arterial. It's doubtful you'll ever see any major changes between Giles...

Re: Idea For 132nd and Giles Reroute
Well, apparently that plan never came to fruition. Some of these project are proposed projects take a long time to get going. 180th Street over the UP finally got built. 192nd Street over the UP is still proposed to happen some day. I would assume with 132nd Giles, there are just a lot more pressin...

Could certainly be more I'm not seeing, but they've been going to town on this the past few weeks. Figu...

Work starting north of Millard North. A crane has been assembled and some big drillers.
