Project Description:

Traffic loads and environmental elements over time have contributed to the deterioration of sections of two important connector roads: Coburg Road and North Game Farm Road. These roads are important in linking the three communities of Eugene, Springfield and Coburg, and are part of LTD bus routes.

Pavement preservation treatment will be used to slow the structural decline. When the treatment is applied at the right time, pavement preservation is a cost-effective approach to extending the overall service life of pavements and achieving smoother, safer roads with fewer costly repairs. Pavement preservation will occur along Coburg Road between milepost 4.836 and 6.601, and along North Game Farm Road between milepost 0.590 and 1.690. Specific project elements include: adding mill and fill in the travel lanes and bike lanes; restriping road surface; and bringing all curb ramps along the road to ADA compliance.

The project will enhance safe transportation facilities and operations, and prevent more costly repairs in the future (e.g., reconstruction). This approach will maintain robust infrastructure - which is one of the Lane County Strategic Plan goals.
