Construction Season: June-November 2016
Estimated Substantial Completion: 10/01/2016
Project History:
The purpose of the Hwy. 75 and 20th St. S.
Corridor Study is to identify the future
improvement needs along Hwy 75 from 20th Ave.
S. to 60th Ave. S. and along 20th St. S. from SE
Main to 60th Ave. S. The Study developed a
range of alternatives that include a combination of
safety, geometric, access management, capacity
and aesthetic improvements. The alternatives
include roadway capacity improvements to
address corridor congestion. The Study also
included a detailed analysis of the Hwy. 75/I-94
and 20th St. S/I-94 interchange.
Project Benefits:
Loop construction eliminates most of the existing
left turn conflicts at ramp junctions. Provides two
right turn lanes southbound Hwy 75 to westbound I-
94 to accommodate heavy volume. Eliminates
unusual yield condition on westbound entrance
ramp from northbound Hwy 75 to westbound I-94.
Existing bridges on Hwy 75 over I-94 will remain
(only widening is required). Provides
pedestrian/bicycle pathway along west side of Hwy
75. Provides sidewalk along the east side of the
bridge.
Project Risks:
Business in southeast quadrant may be impacted.
Loops may have to be designed with a tighter radii
to minimize righ of way impacts (Design exception
may be required). County Ditch in northeast
quadrant may be affected. Retaining walls will be
required

Recent Changes and Updates:
The Hwy 75 and 20th St. Corridor Study was completed in June 2008
Key Cost Estimate Assumptions:
Existing bridge over Hwy 75 will remain (only widening is required). Retaining walls will be
incorporated to minimize right of way acquisitions. Planning Study Estimate used 2008
dollars and was inflated to 2016 dollars (year of construction).
