(WLBT) - If you drive in Madison County, no doubt you’ve seen roadways lined with orange barrels and heavy equipment - signs that work is underway on multiple major road improvement projects. Officials recently gave members of the Board of Supervisors an update on those projects. We’re breaking down those updates below. Stribling RoadResidents have made it clear… additional lanes are needed to help traffic along Stribling Road. But engineers say more is needed than just five lanes.Engineers with Garver and Michael Baker have been tasked to turn the current two lanes in five.But Hartfield neighborhood residents may see their entrance location change as a result of the additional lanes and MDOT’s project to improve the intersection at Highway 463. It’s unclear where it could be relocated. Engineers are exploring location options.Residents at Camden Crossing will now likely see a roundabout added outside their neighborhood entrance. Engineers say the traffic circle will alleviate traffic coming in and out of the neighborhood.Bozeman Road, Reunion Parkway and Calhoun Station ParkwayAs soon as next month, you and your family will be able to drive on the new Reunion Parkway, which connects Bozeman Road to Highway 51.Crews have been steadily making process on the roughly 2.5-mile road project, with a bridge over I-55. As of Monday, that bridge is completed and final steps are being taken to make sure the entirety of the parkway is safe for you and your family to travel on.Supervisors are expecting to hold a ribbon cutting for the parkway on November 13th.But that’s not the only project moving forward quickly.The Calhoun Station Parkway Project has been awarded to Hemphill Construction, and shovels will hit the dirt in Spring 2026 and last 250 days.Progress is also being made on Bozeman Road. Engineers say the intersection of Bozeman, Catlett and Gluckstadt Road is expected to be fully open to traffic in the first quarter of 2026. Weisenberger and Yandell RoadFrom Weisenberger Road all the way to Highway 43, engineers will be looking to improve and widen the roadways. But it’s going to be several years before some projects will see construction.The project on Weisenberger is by far the most complex of the projects throughout the county. Engineers are designing the additional lanes over an existing bridge, the Canadian National Railway, and Highway 51.Each of those elements need to be settled before a final design can be approved, and construction can begin.Construction on Weisenberger is set to begin in 2029.Yandell Road’s project is the longest in the county, stretching from Highway 51 to Highway 43, turning two lanes into five.Engineers are far from being ready to submit their designs, but they have determined that roughly 100 properties will be impacted by the additional lanes. That construction is set to begin in 2027. Ridgewood Road and Wheatley StreetConstruction on Ridgewood Road and Wilson Drive in Ridgeland is already underway, as crews try to improve the drainage in the area. But other major streets will also see construction in the near future.Work began Monday along Ridgewood and Wilson Drive to improve the drainage in the area and reduce flooding in the Purple Creek Basin. Crews are replacing the existing pipes underneath Ridgewood.City Public Works Director Allen Hart says that construction is expected to last until December of 2025.Nearly two miles away, another project will begin shortly after on Wheatley Street but that have a much longer timeline.That work will span from Lake Harbour Drive to Town Center Blvd.Want more WLBT news in your inbox?
