Work started yesterday (2/15/11) on a contract for 640 days to upgrade the Morgan road entrances/exits to a single point interchange.

Project highlights
  • New entrance/exit ramps, will be longer with more gradual curves, none are cloverleafs
  • Only one set of stoplights, it will be on the bridge and you only hit it if you are turning left from the exit or going over i40
  • Business entrances south of the entrance/exit are being adjusted so they will not be the issue they are now
  • Also doing rehabilitation work on all lanes of i40 for one mile in both directions from the bridge
  • Widening Morgan to six lanes between SW 8th and Reno
