About the Project

A 1.2-mile stretch of Hwy 56 was reconstructed in LeRoy to address deteriorating pavement conditions, improve drainage, enhance student crosswalk safety and make pedestrian improvements to meet current accessibility standards.

The project included the following improvements.

  • Reconfigured Mower Co. Rd. 12, Hwy 56 and Main St. E. intersection to improve safety by reducing vehicle speeds while maintaining efficient traffic flow
  • Constructed a cul-de-sac west of Mower Co. Rd. 12
  • Created a buffer zone between traffic and parking from Mather St. to Everett St. for biking
  • Improved school crosswalk safety by constructing a bump out at Mower Co. Rd. 14 and creating a wider school parking zone
  • Replaced aging storm water, sanitary sewer and water main utilities underneath Hwy 56
  • Extended water main past Ada St.
  • Replaced and installed new curb and gutter
  • Replaced and installed new sidewalks
