While construction is tough on everyone, CTRMA is trying to do everything they can to minimize disruptions and ask neighbors to bear with us during this noise-producing work.
Beginning on June 12, 2018,* eastbound Montopolis Drive traffic will detour via a newly constructed section of roadway that will run adjacent to the existing US 183.
This detour is necessary so that crews can remove the existing Montopolis Drive Bridge to northbound US 183 (not the steel truss bridge over the Colorado River) and construct a new and improved bridge over US 183. To minimize impacts to traffic, the deconstruction of the existing Montopolis Drive bridge will take place overnight June 15-18.*
*Dates are subject to change based on weather and other circumstances.

What will Montopolis Drive Intersection with US 183 look like in its Final Condition?
The Montopolis Drive intersection will be transformed to a more traditional intersection design as illustrated in the map on the right.
Traffic signals will be installed on both sides of the intersection on the new general-purpose lanes. In its final condition, Montopolis Drive will be a bridge over the new 183 South Expressway.
The elevation of Montopolis Drive will be similar
to what it is today, while US 183 will pass underneath.
