KY 237 is a major roadway in Boone County, connecting neighborhoods and businesses. The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet saw that a 5.2-mile stretch of the roadway needed to be transformed in order to handle the growing population and traffic, The team at Gresham Smith transformed the old KY 237 into a modern five-lane urban roadway with pedestrian and bicycle access. Split into three phases, the first phase widened the existing roadways into five-lanes. The second phase proved that a single point urband interchange would be best. The third phase brought a new bridge over Gunpowder Creek and a multi-lane roundabout at the intersection of KY 237. Jeremy Kubac, P.E., senior transportation engineer at Gresham Smith said, "The project team was challenged with delivering a design that would stand the test of time over an extended construction period and well into the future." |
