Workers enhancing traffic safety features at the intersection in Madison County.
Madison County is set to initiate a two-week construction project at the Clift Farm intersection aimed at enhancing traffic safety and accessibility. Starting July 14, officials will install ADA-compliant curb ramps and shift the intersection to a four-way stop to manage growing vehicle volumes. Traffic may experience delays during construction, prompting the recommendation of alternative routes. These improvements reflect the county’s dedication to maintaining safe and accessible roadways as Clift Farm continues to grow.
Madison County officials have announced that construction work will commence on Monday, July 14, at the intersection of Jack Clift Boulevard, Silo Lane, and Lesslie Clift Lane in the popular Clift Farm development. The project aims to improve traffic safety and accessibility in this growing residential area.
The upcoming construction will involve several updates to the intersection, notably the installation of ADA-compliant curb ramps to enhance accessibility for individuals with disabilities. Additionally, the intersection will be transformed into a four-way stop to better manage traffic flow as vehicle volume increases in the area. These improvements are part of ongoing efforts to support the expanding community within Clift Farm.
The construction is expected to last approximately two weeks, depending on weather conditions. County officials emphasize that the project timeline may vary if adverse weather occurs, which could potentially extend the duration of the work. Construction activities are scheduled to take place during standard daytime hours, from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m..
During construction hours, single-lane closures will be in effect in the work area, which could cause delays for drivers traveling through the intersection. Motorists should be prepared for possible delays and congestion and are advised to exercise caution while navigating the area. Transportation officials recommend that drivers consider using alternative routes to avoid potential backup and ensure their own safety.
The primary goals of the project are to enhance accessibility for all residents, especially those with mobility challenges, and to improve overall traffic safety. The change to a four-way stop is part of a broader strategy to better manage increasing traffic and prevent accidents in this busy, residential neighborhood.
Clift Farm has experienced rapid growth as a popular suburban community, leading to increased traffic and the need for infrastructure updates. The intersection at Jack Clift Boulevard and Silo Lane has become a key point in managing local traffic flow. The improvements reflect the county’s ongoing commitment to maintaining safe and accessible roadways in the area.
County officials urge residents and commuters to plan ahead for the construction period, remain vigilant, and adhere to posted signs and instructions. While traffic delays are expected, these improvements are critical to supporting the continued development and safety of the Clift Farm community.
