The safety improvement effort is targeted for state Route 93 and Orrville Street NW, as work is planned to kick off in fall 2028 and run through summer of 2029. Estimated construction cost — funded 100% by the state — is about $3.5 million.

"There have been enough bad accidents there that something had to happen," said Blowers, noting that trustees were part of traffic and engineering meetings with ODOT about the effort.
