Results: Construction of a 5-lane roadway through a heavily traveled, commercial and residential area in the City of Omaha. The project included four traffic signals and several retaining walls.

Construction of this road passed by several restaurants, three churches, two Millard Public Schools, city parks and an apartment complex.

Prepared documents and attended town hall meetings to get the project information to the residents and businesses along the route.
