ORIGIN OF PROJECT
In 1983, property owners in the vicinity of Terminal Road from Blue Mound to
Decatur requested the City Council to improve the poor roadway on Terminal Road
from Blue Mound to Decatur, and the substandard intersection at Terminal Road
and Blue Mound Road. At the request of City Council, the existing roadway of
Terminal Road from Blue Mound Road to Decatur Avenue (approximately 1300 L.F.)
and the intersection of Terminal Road and Blue Mound Road were investigated by
the City's Department of Transportation and Public Works and found to need
total reconstruction with curbs and standard geometric approaches at the
intersection of Terminal and Blue Mound Road. On April 12, 1983 (M&C G-5587),
the City Council approved the preparation of construction plans and
specifications, the acquisition of any additional right-of-way necessary, and
the advertising for bids for the project.
