The City of Fitchburg is planning improvements to Syene Road, from Aurora Avenue to McCoy Road. Project concepts include:
Conversion of the rural roadway to an urban roadway with curb and gutter and storm sewer. The roadway concept includes 1 vehicle lane and 1 bicycle lane in each direction, with a median in some locations.
Intersection improvements at Lacy Road, East Cheryl Parkway, Ninebark Drive and McCoy Road. Remaining intersection may include turn lanes and will be designed to promote bicycle/pedestrian connectivity between neighborhoods.
Stormwater improvements.
Sanitary sewer and watermain replacement at select locations.
The project is currently in the design phase. Construction is anticipated in 2022.
A virtual Public Involvement Meeting will be held in early 2021 to share additional detail on project concepts and to obtain feedback. A second meeting will be held later in 2021 to share design details and construction information.
