PUBLIC MEETING

4:00 – 6:00 PM; Thur.,

July 19, 2012

Information Open House

Public Meeting

Auburn Senior Center

1101 J Street, Auburn, NE

136-7(123) In Auburn; CN 13062

136-6(119) Auburn East;

CN 12994

The Nebraska Department of Roads (NDOR) will hold a public information open house regarding proposed improvement of U.S. Highway 136 (US-136), in and east of the City of Auburn. The meeting will be held at the Senior Center in Auburn, Thur., July 19, 2012, from 4:00-6:00 P.M.  

The two projects to be presented are identified as 136-7(123) In Auburn; Control No 13062 and 136-6(119) Auburn East; Control No 12994, and would be constructed entirely within Nemaha County, NE.  The purpose of these proposed projects is to preserve the US-136 transportation asset, improve the reliability of the transportation system and perpetuate the mobility of the traveling public.

The proposed In Auburn re-construction project would entail rebuilding 1.38 miles of US-136 from 600 feet west of Co. Rd. 638th Avenue on the west side of Auburn by the Sheridan Cemetery through “F” Street. The improvements on this project would consist of pavement removal and replacement as required, to the existing width as well as spot improvements at intersections.  Additional improvements would include restriping the segment for three lanes, storm sewer and curb inlet replacement as needed, and sidewalk reconstruction, including American with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant curb ramps as needed.

Construction is proposed to be built in four “phases” from west to east, with the use of some temporary roads to accommodate local traffic.  Construction would require detouring US-136 traffic.  Local traffic would be detoured through town while thru highway traffic will be directed onto other state highways.  U.S. Highway 75 (US-75) traffic would also require detouring for a limited period.  Maps and more information on detouring will be available at the meeting.

The proposed Auburn East re-surfacing project would entail resurfacing 9.73 miles of US-136 from “F” Street in the city of Auburn, through the Village of Brownville to the west end of the Missouri River Bridge.  The primary improvements on this project would consist of concrete pavement repairs, and re-surfacing the asphalt to the existing width.  The project would be built “under traffic,” or without detouring, US-136 traffic, with appropriate traffic control measures, but would be done concurrent with the In Auburn project detouring.

These projects would not require the purchase of new right-of-way (ROW) however temporary construction easements (TE) would be necessary at several locations throughout the project area.

Construction could start as early as spring of 2014 for these proposed projects, depending on available funding and design. The proposed construction is anticipated to take one construction year and could potentially be completed in late fall of 2014.

This public meeting is being held to provide information regarding the project and solicit input. All interested persons are invited to attend and present relevant comments and questions. Design information will be displayed and personnel from NDOR will be present to answer questions and receive comments. The information “open house” format allows the public to come, gather pertinent information about the project, speak one-on-one with project personnel, and leave as they wish.

NDOR will make every reasonable accommodation to provide an accessible meeting facility for all persons. Appropriate provisions for the hearing and visually challenged or persons with limited English proficiency (LEP) will be made if NDOR is notified by July 6, 2012. Notification should be submitted to:  Greg Weinert, Public Hearings Officer, NDOR, P.O. Box 94759, Lincoln, NE  68509-4759;  HYPERLINK “mailto: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
