Project Update
The current marina access off US-89 only allows 9 vehicles with trailers to queue. The decision has been made to move forward with the dual lane entrance design accommodating vehicles from both directions into the marina and increasing the number of queuing vehicles from 9 to 39.
Better Access and a New Pedestrian Crossing
Along with the dual lane entrance, the existing access directly adjacent to the roundabout at the marina entrance will be closed. Vehicles may enter at the new signalized intersection at US-89 and Raspberry Patch Road and exit at the north marina access.
In addition, a new street level, pedestrian crossing with safety flashers will be installed at the overflow access road connecting to the multi use trail for pedestrians to cross the road safely. This pedestrian crossing will be activated by pushing a button and will alert on-coming traffic to slow down and stop for pedestrians waiting to cross.
The crosswalk connection to the marina entrance on the east side of the road will be a widened shoulder path separated from the travel lanes by curb. Signage will be added directing people from the crosswalk to the marina entrance.
The design is in the final stages and should be completed by this Fall. It is anticipated that construction on this project would begin Spring 2021.
