Thunderbird Rd Widening, Loop 101 to 94th Dr

Project Description
This project will provide additional capacity and enhance safety on Thunderbird Road between the Loop 101 and 94th Drive. The southern half of the roadway (the eastbound lanes) will be expanded from two to three lanes along this entire stretch of 94th Avenue to Loop 101, while the northern half (the westbound lanes) will be expanded from two to three lanes between the Loop 101 and 91st Avenue. The bridge over the New River will also be widened to accommodate the additional lanes. Other planned improvements include a raised landscaped median, a 10-foot sidewalk on the north side, either a six-foot or eight-foot sidewalk on the south side, and bike lanes from 91st Avenue to Rio Vista Boulevard.
