Current Phase: Construction
Construction Start Date: April 2022
Anticipated Completion Date: December 2024
Project Description: The project will widen Black Forest Road to a four-lane principal arterial cross-section from Woodmen Road to Research Parkway and include a new bridge over Cottonwood Creek. The existing and proposed development in the City and the County require more capacity on Black Forest Road than the current two-lane section provides.
