NW Chipman Road Improvements Project Traffic Changes Set for Sept. 5

NW Ashurst Drive Connection Set to Open and NW Edgewood Drive Set to Close

NW Chipman Road Improvements Project Traffic Changes Set for Sept. 5

Construction on the NW Chipman Road Improvements project is progressing and the new connection of NW Ashurst Drive to View High Drive is set to open on Tuesday, Sept. 5. After NW Ashurst Drive opens, NW Edgewood Drive will close until December 2023. Traffic typically using NW Edgewood Drive to NW Chipman Road will detour on NW Ashurst Drive to View High Drive.

Also on Sept. 5, the extended closure area will be expanded to include the section of NW Chipman Road from east of Cedar Creek Lane to west of the one-lane railroad bridge at the Rock Island Trail. Local access will be maintained at all times. All work is weather permitting and schedules are subject to change.

The section of NW Chipman Road between View High Drive and NW Bent Tree Drive, previously closed to through traffic on July 31, will remain closed to through traffic until the completion of the project in spring 2025. For more information, contact Public Works at 816.969.1800 or publicworks@cityofls.net.
