Project Description:
LOWELL- DRACUT- METHUEN- RESURFACING AND RELATED WORK ON ROUTE 110
The purpose of this project is to resurface a 5.9-mile portion of the Route 110 corridor and provide overall improvements to the existing infrastructure. The project will provide new pedestrian and bicycle accommodations as well as update existing pedestrian accommodations to ADA compliance. Additionally, the proposed work will include pavement mill and overlay, restriping, and new signage. The proposed cross section consists of 11-foot travel lanes in each direction, a two-foot shoulder on the north side of the road, a 5.5-foot reconstructed sidewalk on the north side, and a 10-foot at-grade shared use path separated from the vehicle travel lane by a two-foot to six-foot buffer containing guardrail or flex-posts. The vehicle travel lanes, shoulders, and at-grade buffered shared use path are proposed to fit within the existing pavement width. The typical width of the buffer is proposed to be six feet. However, in areas where turn lanes are needed, or other constraints exist, the buffer may be reduced to two feet. The typical buffer separation will include w-beam guardrail with a backing on the post-side to protect the pedestrians and bicyclists. Breaks would be provided along the guardrail for driveways and at pedestrian crossings/access points. Flex posts are proposed, in place of guardrail, in areas where there are frequent driveways, and in constrained areas where the buffer narrows.
