Lexington Area MPO

Wilson Downing is getting some traffic improvements!

🚗 A mini roundabout will replace the 4-way stop at Wilson Downing & Belleau Wood Drive.
🚶‍♀️‍➡️ Pedestrians will only need to cross one lane of traffic at a time due to crosswalks & raised islands.
➡️ A little ways up the road, a right turn lane will be added to Wilson Downing to get onto Tates Creek Road.
👀 Be on the lookout for more info about the mini roundabout & how it will work over the next couple weeks!

The details:
🚧 The intersection of Wilson Downing & Belleau Wood Drive will be closed from July 6-31.
🗓️ Starting next week, there will be construction in the area to get the site ready.

Help Shape the Future of Wi******er Road!

Wi******er Road (US 60) is changing fast, with new development and growing transportation needs across the corridor. The Wi******er Road Corridor Study is working to create a shared vision that improves safety, access, and mobility for everyone who lives, works, and travels in this area.

It’s time to make your voice heard! Community input will help guide future decisions on land use, transportation, and investments along the corridor.
