Project Description: Academy Boulevard between Fountain Boulevard and Milton Proby Parkway is a six-lane road with poor pavement and with curb, gutter, and median conditions requiring replacement. The project length of 12,500 feet includes remediation of the pavement area that experiences subsidence due to an abandoned landfill and installation of a new 24” waterline. Poor drainage is contributing to pavement decline, so a new storm water system is being designed to alleviate ponding issues. Planned improvements incorporate recommendations from the Great Streets Corridor Study, including a 10-foot-wide multi-use path.
