Current Status and Next Steps

As of March 31, construction progress at 38% complete. Piledriving continues west of the North Landing River for bridge construction, with 9 of 13 total bridge supports completed to-date. Work on the new Stumpy Lake T-intersection and stormwater pond has started. Soundwall installation is expected to start May 2026, beginning in the Hillcrest Farms neighborhood.

What to Expect During the Project’s Construction

  • The contractor’s typical work hours are from 7 a.m.-5 p.m., Monday through Friday, but residents can expect construction activities, including piledriving operations to continue into evening and possibly early nighttime hours in accordance with City Ordinance.
  • During piledriving, nearby residents will notice noise and may also experience vibrations from the operations.
  • Weekend work may occur on Saturdays, if necessary.
  • Nighttime work may be necessary with City approval (prior notice will be provided).

    • Project Overview

    The Elbow Road Extended Phase II-B & II-C project will realign Elbow Road into a four-lane section extending from Salem Road to Stumpy Lake. The project includes relocating the Elbow Road and Indian River Road intersection and providing alternative access for adjacent commercial, residential, and recreational areas. 

    A key feature of the project is the replacement of the existing 20-foot bridge over the North Landing River with a new 1,050-foot bridge that spans the wetlands and the 100-year floodplain. The new roadway will have a posted speed limit of 45 mph.

    Other Key Features

    • 8-foot sidewalks
    • On-road bike lanes
    • LED streetlights
    • Noise barriers
    • Storm drainage ponds and landscaping
