Add 5 foot shoulders when rebuilding Route K in Columbia (05COL1170)
Status: Completed
City: Columbia. Route: Route K Location: From Route 163 to Mcaine
Type: Shoulder
Description:
Shoulders and/or sidewalks on most portions. The Boone County Commission, through CATSO (Columbia's MPO) has put this on the transportation plan (I'm not sure this is all exactly accurate).
Importance:
SW Columbia has become built up and the road has not kept up. It is heavily used by cyclists and there is a growing pedestrian need.
Obstacles:
ROW is unknown, whether easements or ownership. Drainage ditch mostly the whole way, meaning expensive excavation.
